once you have located the row in the page, you have to divide the index per the pagesize of the data grid.
To find the current page, you have to divide the index of the row in the datatable vie the pagesize of the gridview and rounding the result to the upper integer. If the pagesize is 5 and the row is the 26th in the datatable so the page is the sixth one.
to find the index of the row in the gridview you substract the index of that row in the datatable with the multiplication of the pagesize and the currentpage -1.
So in the example : 26-(5*(6-1)) = 1
I hope this help you
