How to refresh or show immediately in datagridview after inserting?

Question

After entering data into all the textbox, and after clicking the submit button, it won't immediately show in the datagridview, I need to reopen the form in order to see the new inserted row. What code to put in for refresh?

Answer 1

Only need to fill datagrid again like this:

this.XXXTableAdapter.Fill(this.DataSet.XXX);

If you use automaticlly connect from dataGridView this code create automaticlly in Form_Load()

Answer 2

Try refreshing the datagrid after each insert

datagridview1.update();
datagridview1.refresh();  

Hope this helps you!

Answer 3

Use LoadPatientRecords() after a successful insertion.

Try the below code

private void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
        if (btnSubmit.Text == "Clear")
        {
            btnSubmit.Text = "Submit";

            txtpFirstName.Focus();
        }
        else
        {
           btnSubmit.Text = "Clear";
           int result = AddPatientRecord();
           if (result > 0)
           {
               MessageBox.Show("Insert Successful");

               LoadPatientRecords();
           }
           else
               MessageBox.Show("Insert Fail");
         }
}

Answer 4

You can set the datagridview DataSource to null and rebind it again.

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    myAccesscon.ConnectionString = connectionString;

    dataGridView.DataSource = null;
    dataGridView.Update();
    dataGridView.Refresh();
    OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand(sql, myAccesscon);
    myAccesscon.Open();
    cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
    OleDbDataAdapter da = new OleDbDataAdapter(cmd);
    DataTable bookings = new DataTable();
    da.Fill(bookings);
    dataGridView.DataSource = bookings;
    myAccesscon.Close();
}
