Answer / saurabh sharma

If u r presenting small amount of data, u can pick any option. It will take almost same time. But if u want to load heavy data, for example 50000 rows, use sql data paging and objectdatasource or xmldatasource to fill grid view. use paging option of objectdatasource or xmldatasource to switch between pages.

What is the best method to fill the GridView. using SqlDataReader or Dataset and why..

Answer / vasanth

Dataset is the better option then datareader. Since dataset is disconnected, once data can be fetched and stored in dataset and then disconnect the connection and then you can bind to gridview.
In Datareader you are fetching each row and you are binding. So in middle if connection goes off, then half of the data is binded to gridview.
So dataset is better then datareader.
