Hey

ASP.NET 2.0

GridView have AllowPaging & PageSize for the letting the GridView span
multiple pages.

But is the same allowed on a Repeater control? I didn't see any properties
like AllowPaging or PageSize on the Repeater control, so I guess it isn't
possible? if it is possible maybe somebody here could give me a tip on how
it is done on a Repeater control?

Any Suggestions?

There is nothing in the repeater control for this. The GridView and DataGrid
were designed with paging in mind. The Repeater was simply designed to allow
a datasource to be formatted with templated output. You would have to make
your own paging system, which could be a large pain depending upon the
database. SQL Server 2005 has some nice features that would let you limit a
resultset to certain rows (the RowNumber feature), but a lot of other
databases don't. You would then probably find it best to use a datatable as
you could pull certain rows out of it into another datatable and then bind
to the subset of data.
