This is a limitation into the grid control. Rebind() method cannot be called in UpdateCommand event handler. A workaround in this case will be to call .Rebind() conditionally in PreRender event: bool shouldRebind = false; protected void rgReservation_UpdateCommand(object sender, GridCommandEventArgs e) { shouldRebind = true; } void rgReservation_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (shouldRebind) { rgReservation.DataSource = null; rgReservation.Rebind(); } }
