DataGrid with auto live update?

Hi all,

Working with dataset and datagrid in disconnected mode may improve
scalability. However, this means that multi clients instances are viewing
'out of date' local copies if changes were made by someone else to back end
database.

In situation where I need a datagrid to auto refresh, synchronize to
back-end database, without having to a refresh button, so that all users may
see what have been changed, in datagrid.


What is the best approach?

Thanks.

Use a timer and refresh the data on timer tick.
