The PagerSettings property supports four modes: Numeric (default), NextPrevious, NumericFirstLast, and NextPreviousFirstLast. The GridView control automatically supports paging by setting the PagerSettings property. The DataGrid control requires additional coding for paging. The GridView control supports the following column types: BoundField, HyperLinkField, ButtonField, CommandField ImageField, and CheckBoxField. The GridView control supports a DataSourceID property that takes any object that implements the IDataSource interface and can, therefore, take advantage of the data source control's sorting, paging, updating, and deleting capabilities, for example, the SqlDataSource control. Sorting, paging, updates, and deletions must be coded manually. While the DataGrid control can declaratively bind a DataSourceControl control, it can do so only for data selection. The DataGrid control and the GridView control can bind any object that implements the IEnumerable or IListSource interface. Typically a DataSet control, a DbDataReader control, or a collection, such as an Array, an ArrayList, or some other class in the System.Collections namespace, is assigned to the DataSource property of either the DataGrid control or the GridView control. Improved Data Source Binding Capabilities The GridView control includes support for a smart tag panel that provides a convenient interface for performing common tasks, such as setting properties and launching template editing. If you are working in a designer, such as Microsoft Visual Studio, you can take advantage of designer features built into the GridView control. Instead, you can automate these tasks, along with other common tasks such as data binding to a data source, by setting properties on the control. The GridView control enables you to add sorting, paging, and editing capabilities without writing any code. Sorting, paging, and in-place editing of data requires additional coding when using the DataGrid control. Improved data source binding capabilities.ДЄutomatic handling of sorting, paging, updates, and deletes.ДЄdditional column types and design-time column operations.ДЄ Customized pager user interface (UI) with the PagerTemplate property.Дifferences between the GridView control and the DataGrid control include: Although it has a similar object model to that of the DataGrid control, the GridView control also has a number of new features and advantages over the DataGrid control, which include: When bound to a data source, the DataGrid and GridView controls each display a row from a DataSource as a row in an output table.Д«oth the DataGrid and GridView controls are derived from the WebControl class.

Like the DataGrid control, the GridView control was designed to display data in an HTML table. The GridView control is the successor to the DataGrid control.
