Hello,

I have a datagrid that returns over 5000 rows, when a user selects a row the
datagrid posts back and comes back to the very first line. If the user
selectes lets say line 1000 he/she needs to scroll back all the way to that
line.

Is there a way to stop that from happening? That is postback will not
refresh the datagrid or postback will focus on the selected line?

Thanks

Check out SmartNavigation (note: it is IE specific)

A 5000 row datagrid doesn't sound very user friendly to begin with... :^)

HTH,
Greg

Thanks a lot that is exactly what I have been looking for. It works in a
standard row selecting case but somehow fails when I open
another frame. It gives me an "Invalid Pointer" error. Not sure why but
apparently it does not want to play along with a javascripted button in the
datagrid.

Thanks,

PS: Actually there are only 1000 rows at the time...

Well It looks like this is a known problem with SmartNavigation.

It *is* a problem with SmartNavigation, but not too big of a problem to get
around:
