Remarks

Use this property to specify the virtual number of items in the DataGrid control when custom paging is used. This property is only used when the AllowCustomPaging property is set to true.

If the AllowCustomPaging property is set to true, the number of pages required to display every item in the DataGrid control is calculated based on the values of the PageSize and VirtualItemCount properties.

If the AllowCustomPaging property is set to false, the number of pages displayed in the DataGrid control is calculated based on the values of the PageSize property and the total number of items in the data source.
