how to show export to excel link if the row number is more than 200 in ASP.NET without showing the table(with more than 200 rows) to the user?

if I put false in resultsDatagrid.Visible then the export to excel doesn't work!!!

else if (count> 200)
{
DataView view = ds.Tables[0].DefaultView;
view.Sort=e.SortExpression;
resultsDatagrid.DataSource = view;
resultsDatagrid.DataBind();
resultsDatagrid.Visible = true;
resultsLabel.Text = "More than 200 results found. Please Click the Export to Excel Link to Download the Results.";
resultsLabel.Visible = true;
exportLinkbutton.Visible = true;
}

Setting the display property in the style

resultsDatagrid.Style("display") = "none";
