[c#] How to add data to DataGridView

I'm having a Structure like

 X={ID="1", Name="XX",
    ID="2", Name="YY" };

How to dump this data to a DataGridView of two columns

The gridView is like

ID | Name

Can we use LINQ to do this. I'm new to DataGridView Pleaese help me to do this..

Thanks in advance

My favorite way to do this is with an extension function called 'Map':

public static void Map<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Action<T> func)
{
    foreach (T i in source)
        func(i);
}

Then you can add all the rows like so:

X.Map(item => this.dataGridView1.Rows.Add(item.ID, item.Name));

LINQ is a "query" language (thats the Q), so modifying data is outside its scope.

That said, your DataGridView is presumably bound to an ItemsSource, perhaps of type ObservableCollection<T> or similar. In that case, just do something like X.ToList().ForEach(yourGridSource.Add) (this might have to be adapted based on the type of source in your grid).

Let's assume you have a class like this:

public class Staff
{
    public int ID { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

And assume you have dragged and dropped a DataGridView to your form, and name it dataGridView1.

You need a BindingSource to hold your data to bind your DataGridView. This is how you can do it:

private void frmDGV_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    //dummy data
    List<Staff> lstStaff = new List<Staff>();
    lstStaff.Add(new Staff()
    {
        ID = 1,
        Name = "XX"
    });
    lstStaff.Add(new Staff()
    {
        ID = 2,
        Name = "YY"
    });

    //use binding source to hold dummy data
    BindingSource binding = new BindingSource();
    binding.DataSource = lstStaff;

    //bind datagridview to binding source
    dataGridView1.DataSource = binding;
}

you shoud do like this form your code

DataGridView.DataSource = yourlist;

DataGridView.DataBind();
