Display Grid Page info ("Page # of Total Page Count")

The GridView control has the options to enable paging.  You can also specify different paging modes (NextPreviousFirstLast, Numeric, etc.) but it does not provide a way to display page info in the format of "Page 1 of 10" when you're in the mode of NextPriviousFirstLast mode.  So I decided to add my own.  Below the GridView control, I added a label control as follows:

I don't like to hard code strings into code if I can avoid it for internationlization reasons and for ease of editing at one place.  So I put all my messages in a resource file.   To display "Page # of #", I create a string resource named "PageNumberOfTotal" and its content is "Page {0} of {1}".  Then I handle the DataBound event of the GridView control as follows:

        protected void gdRecords_DataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

//If there are records to display, then display the message

            if (gdRecords.Rows.Count > 0)

            {

                lblNumberOfRecords.Visible = true;

                lblNumberOfRecords.Text = string.Format(

                   MessageResource.Properties.Resources.PageNumberOfTotal,

                    gdRecords.PageIndex + 1,

                    gdRecords.PageCount);

            } //If there isn't any records to display, the hide the label control

            else lblNumberOfRecords.Visible = false;

        }
