Insert Rows in datagrid

[sam]

Hello Group,
I am working on inserting Rows in the datagrid as follows:

Private Function addHeaderLines(ByVal ds As DataSet) As DataSet

Dim dr, drBlank As DataRow
Dim count, repeatCount, upperBound As Integer

repeatCount = iMaxLines
upperBound = ds.Tables(1).Rows.Count

While count <= upperBound

If repeatCount = 1 Then

drBlank = ds.Tables(1).NewRow
drBlank(1) = "-1"
ds.Tables(1).Rows.InsertAt(drBlank, count + 1)
count += 1
upperBound += 1
repeatCount = iMaxLines

Else

repeatCount -= 1

End If

count += 1

End While

Return ds

End Function

In the itemDatabound event, I assign the rows with the required data
to be inserted as below:

If CType(CType(e.Item.DataItem, DataRowView).Row.Item(1), String) =
"-1" Then
e.Item.Cells(0).ColumnSpan = 14
e.Item.Cells(0).Text = sbHeader.ToString
e.Item.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.White
End If

sbHeader has a table which needs to be inserted in the empty row.
When I bind the table(1) of dataset ds to a datagrid, the rows seem to
be appended at the end of the datagrid inspite of not allowing the
sort. Not sure why is that happening. Any help with the same is
appreciated!!


Thanks,
Sam.
