How to show data on datagridview with entity framework?

can anyone give me a lead on how this will work
i was looking for some tutorials online and i apply them on my project but it not work properly

in this video tutorial

he just put it like this

GridView.DataSource = db.Personsmain;
GridView.DataBind();

______________

in my coding..
projectentities ent = new projectentities();

DataGridView.DataSource = ent.teacher_table;
DataGridView.DataBind();

i’m getting an error in “DataBind();”

is there any simpler way to show data to datagridview? i’m using windows form application C# unlike him using webform. Would it be that differences cause that problem?

As I have no idea what the error is stating and I have no idea what the rest of the code is, I know System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewdoesn’t have a method DataBind().

The databinding happens automatically without calling the method (this method is only used in webforms’ version: GridView)

So, try without the method, just add the datasource and run the code:

projectentities ent = new projectentities();
DataGridView.DataSource = ent.teacher_table;
