    Traversing a datasourceview

    Hi,

    I'm pretty new to the new dot.net. I've been able to quickly set up
    a grid view with page, etc. The gridview is connected to a drop down
    which changes the gridview's contents based on the value of the drop
    down.

    The one thing I wanted to add was a seach cability to move around
    the gridview without having to page 100 times through the data in the
    datasource. I'd like to add a text box to my page and click a button.
    The button would set off a "search" which would find the grid page my
    desired value is. I suppose this would be done by looping through the
    contents of the datasourceview and finding the row number of the
    desired item- then I would divide that row number by the pagesize to
    get to page number. I'd use the gridview pagenumber property to set the
    page


    Easy to do in the old dot.net. I need some way of traversing the
    datasourceview to do what I've outlined above. I can't find any
    properties or methods to help me do this. Is there some travesable
    object I could copy the datasourceview to so I can traverse it to
    accomplish what I want? Or am I missing the point entirely?

    Any help would be appreciated.
