If anyone is brought here by Google/etc, use a BindingList

You can use any collection that implements IEnumerable and simply assign it as DataSource to your DataGridView , like

dataGridView1.DataSource = myCollection;

sounds like you want to use a list as the datasource.

List<myObject> oblst = new List<myObject>;
//insert into the list
datagridview.DataSource = oblst;

Removed datagridview.DataBind();

You can use ToArray() to convert your list. Say if your DataGridView named as yourdataGridView and the available list named as yourList then 

yourdataGridView.DataSource = yourList.ToArray();

In your question you didn't mention which type of list you use. Try to do this using data table.

DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt.Columns.Add("FirstName");
dt.Columns.Add("LastName");
foreach(var oItem in YourList)
{
     dt.Rows.Add(new object[] { oItem.FirstName, oItem.LastName });
}
myDataGridView.DataSource = dt;
