Event handler or remoting problem?

[bassguy]

Hello all,
just making the vb--> c# switch so forgive me if I speak VB on some terms.

I have a tcp client/server app set up with remoting.
I have an arrayList of Officers as a singleton on the server with a method that returns the Officers:

public ArrayList GetOfficers()
		{
			return myofficers;
		}

I have an event handler that calls a refresh function:

myClient.MessageReceived += new Client.MessageReceivedEventHandler( Client_MessageReceived ); 


private void Client_MessageReceived( object sender, EventArgs e ) 
{ 
     RefreshIt();
     this.listBox1.Items.Add("messaged");
}

I have a button click that calls the same function

private void button2_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
     RefreshIt();
     this.listBox1.Items.Add("Clicked");
}

here is the refresh function

private void RefreshIt()
{
	list=myServer.GetOfficers();
	this.dataGrid1.DataSource=list;
}

ok. so there is the set up, sounds pretty straight forward.

on the button click:
refresh function is called and returns the ArrayList
then adds the text to the ListBox

on the messagerecieved event:
1. the refresh function is called
2. the ArrayList is filled (apparently the same as always)
3. the datagrid empties and acts like it is a null set
4. the debugger seems to never return to the MessageRecieved event.
5. the call to the listbox is never performed.


so, what am i missing?

any help would be appreciated

this.dataGrid1.DataSource=list;

At the very least you will need to "dataGrid1.databind();"/
