            dataGridView1.DataBind();
       }

i have this error when i run my code

"
'System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView' does not contain a definition for 'DataBind' and no extension method 'DataBind' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Your question tag and the exception is not matched. Are you asking Asp.NET or Window Forms GridView control ?

When you set the datasource the grid should show the data. So just comment out the last line.

When setting the datasource, instead of using a dataset, use the datatable. For example:

dataGridView1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];

If you're still not seeing anything in the grid, put a breakpoint in your code and check that there actually are rows in your datatable.

Did you debug through the code? Did the table have data? Also have you defined columns correctly or have you set AutoGenerateColumns to true?
