Are you working with ASP.NET application or Windows forms? For the GridView Dataset is better - GridView will be based on DataSet.

I have some old working code in ASP.NET I can probably share, but it's not something I can explain in few words - although you may also find samples on the Web of how to make an application (ASP.NET or Windows forms) using GridView.
