Adding a column to a datagrid 1

[cruise95]

I would like to add some rows to an existing datagrid. If I add rows to a new datatable and then bind this datatable to the datagrid, then the grid will refresh/reload (Since it is being recreated).

Is there anyway to add rows/values to a datagrid? Thank you for any help.

why do you want to make it a new datatable? Why not the one that is already there?

when the user opens up the application, an initial datagrid is displayed (from a datadtable populated with values from mySQLTable). This table gets updated with new rows periodically. Every 15 seconds my application should grab any new records and add them to the existing datagrid.

I am not sure how to add a row to an existing datagrid.

you could just requery the database every 15 seconds and just rebuild your datatable each time instead of just getting the new rows. It will probebly be quicker that way.

just create a sub that creates the datatable for the datagrid and just recall it as needed.

Yes, rather than creating a new table, simply use a timer to call the database, get a new table of records, and update the DataGrid.
