I have some doubt about GridView PageSize, for the example if my table have more than 100000 rows and i set PageSize=50, i can see GridView trying to download whole 100000 rows and display only 50 records with pagewise.

I have a gridview that is dynamically created based off a csv file I'm importing.
Since I don't know what the column names are ahead of time, I can't pre format the gridview and use the "findcontrol" method to get the text value of the labels that are populated b/c I don't know the column names.

but I'm not sure how to get the text value of the first column label? Not sure of the syntax?
