How to refresh a DataGridView when a dialog form is closed - sql

Question

I am trying to refresh a datagirdview when i add a new record using a dialog form. I would like to know how can i refresh my datagirdview. I have two Win Forms . Form A is called FrmContactDetailList which is having a datagridview which i is showing data from sql server. Below first block of code is used to bind data to the grid. which is given in form load event and also in this form i have a Button called "Add New Record" . Once i press this button its opening a win form which is opening another form. Below is that code which i used to open this in by button click event.
This will open Form B. Form is called FrmClientDetails. This form will have a text box and a save button . So once i enter the new name in the text box and press save i want the datagirdview which is in Form A to be updated . and show the new record once i close Form B. how can i achieve this.
This Code is used to bind the datagridview. I have given this is the form load event.
Sub GetContactList()
Dim BindData As New VoucherClass
Dim dt As DataTable = BindData .Get_Client_List
DataGridView.DataSource = dt
End Sub
Private Sub FrmContactDetailsList_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
GetContactList()
End Sub
I have using this code to open the dialog form to enter the new data.
Private Sub BtnOpen_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnOpen.Click
Dim FrmNewContact As New FrmClientDetails
FrmNewContact.Owner = Me
FrmNewContact.ShowDialog()
End Sub

Answer 1

When the binding data change it is automatically reflected to the data grid view that is bond.
Edit:
Handle the FrmNewContact's Closing event. You can refresh your datagridview in that sub.
Dim WithEvents dialog As New FrmNewContact
Sub done() Handles dialog.FormClosed
Me.DataGridView1.Refresh()
End Sub
Next edit:
Dim BindData As New VoucherClass
Dim dt As DataTable = BindData .Get_Client_List
Declare them outside of the sub. So you should have this:
Dim BindData as VoucherClass
Dim dt as DataTable
Sub GetContactList()
BindData = New VoucherClass
dt = BindData .Get_Client_List
DataGridView.DataSource = dt
End Sub

Answer 2

Try this: Instead of FrmNewContact.ShowDialog() If FrmNewContact.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then Me.DataFridView.Refresh() End IF You may need to include a setter for your dialog result at the close action for your modal. Me.DialogResult = DialogResult.OK Me.Close()
