How to add default text as 'No record found' in Gridview,when there is no data?

Answer:

We can add text as 'No record found' in Gridview,when there is no data with the help of EmptyDataText property.

For ex:-

<asp:GridView ID="grid_view_employee_details" runat="server" AllowPaging="true" AutoGenerateColumns="false"

  

EmptyDataText = "No record(s) found" 

           OnRowDataBound="grid_view_employee_details_RowDataBound"   OnSelectedIndexChanged ="grid_view_employee_details_SelectedIndexChanged">

</asp:GridView>

When gridview binds with dataset object or any other object,and that object is null or empty,then "No record(s) found" text will be displayed in GridView.
