Because you never mention in your thread its a windows application. DataGrid is an Web Component.

As indicated in previous replies it really helps to be clear and accurate in your question. Also it is requested that you use the appropriate forum. This question is about a DataGridView correct? So it is very easy to put the question in the Windows Forms forum. A DataGridView has a row at the bottom for creating a new row by default. Are you sure it is not there? If it is not there then perhaps you have the property set so that it is disabled. You don't have to have separate buttons to add and delete rows. You can do that but the DataGridView is designed so that you do not need to. Yes there are properties for making a DataGridView editable. Please look at the documentation. Note that the easiest way to do this is to make a data source from the object then add the data source to the form. By default a DataGridView will be used for the data source. The VS IDE can make it amazingly easy. It will create the list for you.
