DataGridView automatically selects first row

[Brett]

I'm setting the datasource of a DataGridView to a datatable. This
loads the grid correctly but it automatically selects the first row in
the grid, triggering the SelectionChanged event. Is there a way to
stop the grid from automatically selecting the first row?

Thanks.

Try handling the DataBindingComplete() event and setting selectedIndex = -1.

You would just as well do this: datagridviewname.ClearSelection(); right
after loading data.
