There's no special code in MM .NET data binding that forces the row to be displayed at the bottom. Ultimately, behind the scenes, MM .NET uses standard Windows Forms data binding--you just don't have to write any code to data bind. By default, when you add a new row to a DataTable, it is placed at the end of the row. Have you tried binding to a sorted DataView, or are you doing that already?
