>So, were you data binding to a null object? IIRC, that's what I was doing (incorrectly, obviously) - I think I was incorrect in saying earlier that I was binding to an empty data set.<

Well, no not really ... I typically don't data bind to objects, only DataTables. It wasn't the data binding per se that was causing the problems. Just some code in my Rebind() method that was using some variables that hadn't been instantiated yet and were still null.

But, anyway, the result is the same ... it didn't work! <g> Thanks for your suggestions! =)
