    In general you don't need to rebind the dataset (or need something else to update the grid). The grid should react to changes in the data source. This is the main concept of data binding. There are though some ... small features in dataset events which should be taken into account. If your grid does not update itself after your operations with the dataset - post a message here. There are workarounds to make datagrid update itself (explicit calls).
