Answer 1

So in order to accomplish the approach you desire it would need to be done this way:

//Create the new row first and get the index of the new row
int rowIndex = this.dataGridView1.Rows.Add();

//Obtain a reference to the newly created DataGridViewRow 
var row = this.dataGridView1.Rows[rowIndex];

//Now this won't fail since the row and columns exist 
row.Cells["code"].Value = product.Id;
row.Cells["description"].Value = product.Description;
