ASP.NET Basic GridView control not displaying at all

I am getting started with a basic asp.net gridview control and I just dont seem to be able to make it visible in the web browser at all in an asp.net web application.

Here is what I have just to get myself started off. In the aspx page ...

<asp:GridView ID="myGr" runat="server" BackColor="Aqua" AutoGenerateColumns="True" Width="100%"  ViewStateMode="Enabled"></asp:GridView>

In the code behind I have ...

Dim tbl As New DataTable
        tbl.Columns.Add("ID", GetType(Int32))
        tbl.Columns.Add("Name", GetType(String))
        tbl.Columns.Add("Birthday", GetType(Date))
        Dim pers As DataRow = tbl.NewRow
        pers("ID") = 1
        pers("Name") = "Tim"
        pers("Birthday") = New Date(1973, 6, 9)


        myGr.DataSource = tbl
    myGr.DataBind()

Would be great if anyone could give me some basic advice on this control

You create row but you do not add it to the table.

You have to add line like that:

tbl.Rows.Add(pers)

You need to add the row you inserted to the datatable tbl. Because you haven't done this, the datatable is empty so the Gridview is empty too.

Like that: tbl.Rows.add(pers)
