Answer 1

You can hide a NextPreviousPagerField object in a DataPager control by setting the Visible property to false. You can also hide the individual buttons (the first-page, previous-page, next-page, and last-page buttons) by setting the ShowFirstPageButton, ShowPreviousPageButton, ShowNextPageButton, and ShowLastPageButton properties to false.

MSDN Good luck trying it out ;). It will probably be something like

    if(results < 30) { DataPager1.Visible = false; }
