    I looked at the now deleted reply and noticed you seem to want a master detail view. If that is the case see my code sample. Primary keys are shown for demo purposes only.

    If the DataGridView.DataSource is not set.

    if (dataGridView1.RowCount < 4)
    {
        dataGridView1.RowCount = 4;
    }
    

    Else if the DataSource is set than you need to decide what to do for instance if the DataSource is a DataTable, check the row count and dependent on rules for DataColumns decide how to add rows to the DataTable etc.
