[Solved] Custom paging: Am I reading this example correctly?

[Boris]

With regard to this example:  http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/grid/examples/programming/custompaging/defaultcs.aspx

Am I reading this correctly?  It looks to me like in the NeedDataSource, if you have entered any filter or sort, custom paging is disabled.

In my own immediate project I implemented custom paging to deal with a rapidly growing database.  I now have a LinqToSql data layer that returns 15 records at a time (rather than the 1000+ it was doing before).  So far, so good.

Are you saying that if I do any filtering or sorting, I have to disable custom paging and download the whole record set again?

Hi Boris,

You are absolutely correct. The custom paging need to be disabled in order to filter all the records and return only the filtered one. The same is valid for sorting as well.

That's what I've done. Looks good so far.

Thanks.
