How to prevent drawing DataGrid rows while adding rows?

Hi,

I have a DataGrid with a DataTable as data source. At some point I fill the
DataGrid with rows, but I notice that for every row I add the DataGrid is
forced to repaint its contents.

How can I stop DataGrid from updating itself while I'm putting in a lot of
rows?

Thank you,

Try using SupendLayout and ResumeLayout, these functions avoid rendering.
(Remember to call ResumeLayout otherwise the control won't paint anymore)
