Is there way to disable updating of a grid?

[Desis Machino]

I would like to use the grid in the following manner:

The grid display 10 rows and 10 columns of data. Then I want to change the data, but I do not want the grid to refresh the data as I change each cell. I would like to be able to update each cell, and then when I am done, refresh the grid. I have tried setting the grid visible to false and then to true, and this is the functionality I want, however, this results in the grid flashing briefly, so I cannot use this approach.

Is there another way to do this?

Call grid.BeginUpdate before you start updating, and then grid.EndUpdate afterwards. (Then you may have to call grid.Refresh() to refresh things if the grid does not get refreshed automatically).
