How to Display data in datagridview from access database

Question

I have the codes below here in displaying data in datagridview from access database. I have different rows but in only display the last row of data in database. I dont know what's wrong in my code.

    dataGridView1.Columns.Add("UserID", "UserID");
    dataGridView1.Columns.Add("FirstName", "FirstName");
    dataGridView1.Columns.Add("MI", "MI");
    dataGridView1.Columns.Add("LastName", "LastName");
    dataGridView1.Columns.Add("Birthdate", "Birthdate");
    dataGridView1.Columns.Add("Address", "Address");
    dataGridView1.Columns.Add("UserName", "UserName");
    dataGridView1.Columns.Add("UserPassword", "UserPassword");
    dataGridView1.Columns.Add("Rights", "Rights");


    OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection(@"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=\\SISC-STRONGHOLD\MIS!\wilbert.beltran\SEEDBucksDbase.accdb");
    conn.Open();
    OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand();
    cmd.Connection = conn;
    cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * From TableAcct";
    OleDbDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
    while (reader.Read())
    {
        dataGridView1.Rows.Add();

        dataGridView1.Rows[dataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1].Cells["UserID"].Value = reader[0].ToString();
        dataGridView1.Rows[dataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1].Cells["FirstName"].Value = reader[1].ToString();
        dataGridView1.Rows[dataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1].Cells["MI"].Value = reader[2].ToString();
        dataGridView1.Rows[dataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1].Cells["LastName"].Value = reader[3].ToString();
        dataGridView1.Rows[dataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1].Cells["Birthdate"].Value = reader[4].ToString();
        dataGridView1.Rows[dataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1].Cells["Address"].Value = reader[5].ToString();
        dataGridView1.Rows[dataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1].Cells["UserName"].Value = reader[7].ToString();
        dataGridView1.Rows[dataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1].Cells["UserPassword"].Value = reader[8].ToString();
        dataGridView1.Rows[dataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1].Cells["Rights"].Value = reader[9].ToString();
    }
    conn.Close();
}

You can directly bind dataGridView1 using OleDbDataAdapter. Make sure that the names of the columns in the datagridview matches with the field names return by the query so it will contain blank columns and create another column for every fields.

string connStr = @"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;
        Data Source=\\SISC-STRONGHOLD\MIS!\wilbert.beltran\SEEDBucksDbase.accdb";
string query = "SELECT * From TableAcct";
using(OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection(connStr))
{
    using(OleDbDataAdapter adapter = new OleDbDataAdapter(query, conn))
    {
        DataSet ds = new DataSet();
        adapter.Fill(ds);
        DataGridView1.DataSource= ds.Tables[0];
    }
}
