Displaying number of data items in a Repeater using the DataBinder

[Tomasz Zaniewski]

Hi,

Does anyone know of a method to read the number of items in a repeater and
display it in each item in the repeater.

I want to display something in the lines of:
Item x of y for each item in the repeater and am not sure how to get this. I
can get the x, but not the y.
Currently I am using:
<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Count")%> of <%#
DataBinder.Eval(???,???)%>

I am not sure what to put instead of the '???'. Is there some other way to
do this?

Thanks.

In codebehind make a property that will return the number of items in the
data source and databind to that property.
