ASP.net Insert blank rows into Gridview

I have a gridview that is bound to a sqldatasource. The Gridview only has a pagesize of 10 and I would like each page to have 10 rows. Therefore if only 5 data rows exist then I would like to add an additional 5 empty rows. Is this easy to do?

Fill your data into data set and count the number of rows retrieved then fill the remaining to the dataset with empty dataRows try this: Suppose you have a DataSet dt filled with the table or data you want

int remainingRows=10 - dt.Rows.Count;
DataRow dr;
for (int i = 0; i < remainingRows; i++)
{
    dr = dt.NewRow();
    dr[0] = dr[1] = dr[2] = dr[3] = dr[4] = "";//index goes the no of cols in the table
    dt.Rows.Add(dr);
}
dt.AcceptChanges();
grdView.DataSource = dt;
grdView.DataBind();

For meeting your requirement , I think you shouldn't use sqldatasource to bind gridview instead of manual binding the datasource to gridview. you can encapsulate a datatable or dataview which each page have 10 rows as the datasource.
