I have a UserControl that I need to put a DataGridView into that is bound to a TableAdapter. I am using C#. When I drag the TableAdapter to the DataGridView and drop it onto the UserControl the DataGridView and the navigation strip is crated but there is no code generated to fill the DataGridView (the datasource or whatever).

In other words, when I create a form the same way I create the UserControl, there is a form load event that calls the TableAdapter.Fill generated but the UserControl's load event is not generated for the UserControl. Is this normal?

Hi Simple Samples,

Thank you for your feedback. I can reproduce the issue on my side too. Once I use that usercontrol on my form, it won't show any data in DataGridView. To resolve the issue, I added this.testTableAdapter.Fill(dsTest.test); to the usercontrol's constructor, then it can show the data correctly when form load.

I suggest you can post the issue to the Microsoft Connect, so that you can get email feedback to track it.

Sincerely,
Kira Qian

Thank you very much, Kira. Yes, I can do everything you say.

I did already put in the call to the TableAdapter.Fill, except I put the call in the Load event instead of in the constructor. I assume either place will work.

I will create a feedback item in Microsoft Connect. I will post back here after I do.

See Code to fill a DataGridView in a UserControl is not generated. I determined that the problem exists for datasources in general, not just TableAdapters. The two might be the same thing; this is something I don't have enough experience in to be sure of what I am saying. I hope the feedback item I created is an accurate description of the problem.
