Hi,
I am new to VB.net so at the moment I seem to be spending a lot of my time
searching for solutions to problems online. However this problem has me
stumped.

I have written a little program that as a part of it pulls information out
of a text file. What I want to do is display some of that information in a
datgridview.

I have managed to add the column headings using DataGridView1.Columns.Add,
but now I need to add data underneath these headings.

The program loops through a text file, splitting strings into smaller
strings. It is these smaller strings I want to add under the column headings.

Am I making sense? Is anyone able to help out?

A DataGridView is most often used to display data from a DataTable, so what
you probably want to do is create a DataSet and a DataTable, bind your
DatGridView to your DataTable and then add DataRows to your DataTable
containing the information you wish to display in the DataGridView using
DataTable.Rows.Add

Hope that helps.....

Why can't you just add new rows, and set the value in each cell? Is that
what you're looking for?
