      Set the grid to read only. Or set every column to read only.

              Suresh,
              The VB.NET DataGrid itself does not have an AllowNew property.

              However the DataView object that the DataGrid ultimately gets bound to does
              support an AllowNew property.

              When you bind a DataGrid to a Dataset & table name (or to a DataTable) the
              DataGrid uses the DataTable.Defau ltView property to actually bind to.

              Instead of binding to a DataSet & table name I would recommend binding to a
              DataView. Associate this DataView with your DataTable from your DataSet,
              then set the AllowNew property on this DataView to false. Alternatively you
              may be able to change the DataView returned from DataTable.Defau ltView, but
              remember to change it back when you want to allow adding records...

              DataView is in the System.Data namespace along with DataSet & DataTable.

              Hope this helps
              Jay
