Accessing total item count of grid

[KevinMc]

Is there any way to get the total item count for a grid when using custom paging with the objectdatasource? I would like to update a label outside the grid with the total number of records returned by the query. The objectdatasource has the selectcount method which tells the grid total records. If anyone would tell me what event and property to use to access that count in either the objectdatasource or the radgrid so i could set the label that would be great.

Hi KevinMc,

Give a try with the following code snippet and see whether it is helpful.

CS:

  protected void RadGrid1_ItemEvent(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.EventInfo is GridInitializePagerItem)
        {
            int allRowsCount = (e.EventInfo as GridInitializePagerItem).PagingManager.DataSourceCount;
        }
    }

Thanks
Shinu.
