Recommended approach for loading / updating data to the grid?

What is your recommended approach for loading / updating the datasource. calling databoundgrid.BeginLoadData() still does not suspend the grid. What is the best approach for accomplishing this? tia, Peter

I am not sure what you want to suspend. There is no method named BeginLoadData in GridDataBoundGrid. If you want to suspend drawing the grid, try using grid.BeginUpdate/grid.EndUpdate. If you want to suspend the binding to the datasource while you work on the datasource, try grid.Binder.SuspendBinding/grid.Binder.ResumeBinding to see if that does what you need. (Note - this is broken in some of the 2.0 betas, but should be fixed in the upcoming release.)

i was using grid.beginUpdate() grid.EndUpdate() and datatable.beginloaddata() datatable.endloaddata() grid.Binder.SuspendBinding()grid.Binder.ResumeBinding() is just what i needed, thanks
