Hi, I am a newbie. I have read couple fo articles regarding datapager and was trying to implement on my web page. I have a listview with dataset. I was trying to include <asp:DataPager control on my aspx page byt it gives me weird error saying

"System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListView does not have a public property named 'DataPager' ". 

I googled for this but could not really find any info. Can anyone please help me with this? Following is my code for listview.

Thanks in advance
