Remarks

Because the PageIndexChanging event occurs before the GridView control performs the paging operation, the PageIndex property of the control cannot be used to determine the index of the page selected by the user. Use the NewPageIndex property to determine the index of the page selected by the user.

Note

During the PageIndexChanging event, the PageIndex property still contains the index of the previously displayed page.

You can also use this property to programmatically override the page index selected by the user by setting it to another value.
