Answer 1

It looks like you are using the wrong grid control. Use the Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.Grouping.GridGroupingControl or Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridDataBoundGrid controls for direct data binding.

If you really want to use the Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridControl, then you can use it in virtual mode. Look at the QueryColCount, QueryRowCount, QueryCellInfo, and QueryCellFormattedText events. QueryCellInfo is where you should set the styles and values. If you want to do do two-way binding, also see the SaveCellInfo event.
