Hi,
I'm trying to bind a list of simple types (UInt32, double etc.) to a datagridview. I'm using the following simple code:

dataGridView1.DataSource = vectors[0];

vectors is an array of List<UInt32>. Unfortunately, the datagridview appears to be empty though the DataSource property correctly references a list of values.
I've experimented with AutoGenerateColumns and tried to insert columns manually, but the grid insists of not displaying any data.
In all the examples I've seen, the bound data always had a "property name" to reference, but this is not the case here.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ury

The grid cannot create columns because there is no bindable properties in datasource items (int in this case).

Is this a winform DataGridView? If so it may need a binding source. I describe such an action in my example on my blog entitled: C# Linq How To Load a Winform Control Using Dynamic Linq entitites (Or any other Control)

Thanks William.
I'm not sure regarding the "winform". My app is a VS2005 Windows application.
I added the binding source but the result is the same. Now the binding source object contains 166 items (which is the size of the list object), but the grid is till empty.
Your example refers to names properties. As I said, my list contains ints, doubles etc. (no properties, no names).
