How can I refresh the contents of a gridview that's on a different
form than the one I'm using? The gridview is bound to a datasource,
and in this other form I'm writing to the database that this
datasource is created by. I have to manually close and restart my app
to see the updated contents in the gridview. Any suggestions are
appreciated.

Consider (among many other solutions) making a public static Method
"RefreshData" on the form you need to have refreshed. You can then make a
call to this method from the other form, eg. MyOtherForm.RefreshData()
This would get the latest data from the database and then rebind the Grid.

Ok, that makes sense. And in that method, the actual command to
refresh the gridview is 'gridview.refresh()' ? Or do I need to re
bind the datasource? And if so, how?
Thanks!!

You would need to re-get the data just as if for the first time, and
re-assign it to the DataSource property.

Ok, so I have this public function on the same form as the gridview,
that basically sets its datasource to null, and rebinds it after
running a query. If I call that function, from within the same form,
the gridview refreshes just fine. But if I call that public function
from a different form, it doesn't do anything. Not sure where to go
from here...
