Is it possible to populate a grid using code (not binding it to a
datasource). Is there something like an additem method?
Thanks,

Re: Programmaticall y populate grid
Tim,
No, there isn't. You need to find a class that implements IList and
then bind to that.
DataSet classes are disconnected data, meaning that you don't need a
database in order to use them. They also have designer support, so you
should just use that in your program and bind to that (populating that
programatically ).
Hope this helps.

Re: Programmaticall y populate grid
I gave that a try. I created my dataset and datatable and populated it
with the data I need.
I bound the dataviewgrid to the dataset, but no records show in my grid. I
have checked the datatable and there are actually records in the table. Am
I missing something? Here is the code I am using:
DataSet dsgrid = new DataSet();
DataTable workTable = new DataTable();
dsgrid.Tables.A dd("tablename") ;
workTable.Colum ns.Add("field1" , typeof(String)) ;
workTable.Colum ns.Add("field2" , typeof(String)) ;
workTable.Colum ns.Add("field3" , typeof(String)) ;
code to populate table
dataGridView1.D ataSource = dsgrid.Tables[0];
Thanks,
