The GridDataBoundGrid uses a DataView object associated with a DataTable to implement filtering. So, the default filter support only works with a DataTable/DataView datasource.
If you want filtering supported for an arbitrary IList object, you can use a GridGroupingControl.

We are using the DataBoundGrid for several other nearly identical forms. Since the GridGroupingControl has a significantly different object model and some different behaviors, it will not work for us. I have gotten around the problem by having our datasource class supply a dataset and respond to all of the dataset events and keeps it synchronized with the underlying data.
This round-about way of handling the data will work for our current situation, however I would like to request that future versions of the GridFilterBar be able to handle any datasources that implement IList. Thank you,
