Remove last row in a unbound datagridview

Hi All,
I have a undound DataGridView. That is, I am populating the
DataGridView using the DataGridView.Rows.Add() call and by setting the
values to individual cells in the row. When I am adding data to the
DataGridView using such a method, I am getting an unwanted row at the
bottom of the DataGridView. I want to avoid this row. Any help with
respect to this is highly appreciated.

I am not planning to use databinding for the DataGridView. Since,
the DataGridView has 7 columns. I should be able to sort the
DataGridView using any of these seven columns. If I use the
databinding, it will be difficult to sort the view. Hence, using the
Default sort of the DataGridView helps me in this case. But the
presence of last row in the DataGridView should not be supported.

So, please tell me a good method, using which I can remove the
unwanted last row in the DataGridView.

Thanx In Advance,
Sudeesh G

Sudeesh,

Is the extra row being added empty and have an '*' on the left most
portion of the row? If so your problem is that you have adding
enabled, meaning that the user can manually enter new rows. You can
turn this property off in Visual Studio.

If you are looking at your WinForm in VS and your project is not
running, click on the DataGridView and you should see a little arrow
in the top right corner. Click on that once and you should see a
number of options. Some of those options have checkboxes and one of
them should say "Enable Adding". Make sure that it is not checked.

If that doesn't solve the problem post your code for when you create
the DataGridView, set it's attributes, and populate it's data.

Thanx Justin,
That was the reason. I have turned off the property
AllowUsersToAddRows. Now it works. Once again thanx.
