Does Property return a reference to the classes object?

[nate axtell]

I have a custom class with a Private DataTable member and a Public Property
that returns this DataTable in its Get call. Is the DataTable that is
returned from the Property's Get a reference to the class's Datatable?
I'm binding a DataGrid in my form as follows, but adding a row with the
bo.AddRow() method does not update what is in the DataGrid. Any
suggestions?

[Start Form]
Private bo as CustomBusinessC lass
FormLoad()
bo = New CustomBusinessC lass()
bo.initListing( ) '-- initializes datatable
FormGrid.SetBin dings(bo.Listin g, "")
End FormLoad()

ButtonClick()
bo.AddRow()
End ButtonClick
[End Form]

Public Class CustomBusinessC lass
Private _listing as DataTable
Public ReadOnly Property Listing() as DataTable
Get
Return _listing
End Get
End Property

initListing()
...Fill the listing by creating a DataTable manually
end initListing

AddRow()
...Add row to _listing manually
end AddRow
End Class

Disregard...
My problem is with resetting the DataTable in the Business Object, not in
the use of the Property to access the DataTable.
