How to programmatically set cell value in DataGridView?

Question

I have a DataGridView. Some of the cells receive their data from a serial port: I want to shove the data into the cell, and have it update the underlying bound object.

Answer 1

I tried a lot of methods, and the only one which worked was UpdateCellValue:

dataGridView.Rows[rowIndex].Cells[columnIndex].Value = "New Value";
dataGridView.UpdateCellValue(columnIndex, rowIndex);

I hope to have helped. =)
