Remarks

Use the PageButtonCount property to specify the number of numeric buttons to display concurrently in the pager element of the DataGrid control. The Mode property must be set to PagerMode.NumericPages for this property to have any effect.

If there are more pages in the DataGrid control than specified in this property, ellipsis buttons (...) are displayed in the pager element. When clicked, these buttons display the next or previous set of numeric buttons.
