Disable Adding New Records in a DataGrid Control

[John R. Dougherty]

Using VB.NET: I am populating a DataTable from a SQL Server table, then
associating that DataTable to a DataGrid control. I want to disallow the
user from inserting new records on that DataGrid, but I cannot find a way to
do this. Is there a way to prevent a user from inserting a new row through
the DataGrid - either
in the DataGrid itself, or in the original DataTable I am creating?

- Thanks,

JRD

John,

Your only possibility in that is
dataview(defaultview).allownew = false

(When you than want to add a row in code using the dataview you have to set
it temporaly to true)

Although the code in C# is exactly the same. Did you know that there is a
newsgroup
microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb
and as well
microsoft.public.framework.adonet

However I hope that the answer on your qeustion helps?

What about if you wanted to have the new rows show up on the top of the
datagrid instead of the bottom?
