Why not try the following?

lcRecordSource= This.myGrid.RecordSource
This.myGrid.RecordSource= ""
ZAP in MyTable
This.myGrid.RecordSource= lcRecordSource

I did not try it but it works well for similar situtations (whenever the grid's recordsource is filled with a cursor created with a SELECT-SQL.)
