there's no easy way around it. use the filter method of either the dataview
or the dataset. when you find the item you will have to calculate what page
it is on and move the page index to the correct page. the calculation isn't
terribly difficult since you know the index it is in the container and how
many pages the grid contains as well as how many items fit on one page.
don't forget to include the last page since all rows do not necessarily fill
up the last page and it may throw your calculation off.
