change the datasource on the fly - in the code behind.

say for example
in page load you have

sql.commandtext = "select * from users"; 
gridview1.datasource = sql.ExecuteReader();

in search button click:

sql.commandtext = "select * from users where name LIKE '%" + textbox1.text + "%'";
gridview1.datasource = sql.ExecuteReader();

Sqlcommand cmd=new Sqlcommand ("select * from tablename where name like '%"+TextBox1.Text+"%'",con);
con.open();
SqldataReader dtr=cmd.executeReader();
GridView1.DataSource=dtr;
GridView1.DataBind();

Yes! Possible...

Start looking from here: DataGrid Filter[^]
Google for more, if needed.

Solution 4

Specify the filter condition to data object containing data before binding data to GridView.
