Hi You have to do this using paging but datalist doesn't have in-built paging so you should be do custom paging. I have done this in my previous post in that i am displaying name and image from the database you can refer this example it can be useful for you. See in Attachment file.

I don't know why you wanna create the custom control you can do this easily by your query too. Use this in your select query:- --------------------------------- SelectCommand=SELECT TOP 10 field1 field2 FROM tablename
