title: Converting a comma delimited string to a datatable row in VB.NET
body: <p>I am trying to convert a string with data separated by commas into the first row of a datatable. The datatable is otherwise empty.</p>
  
  <p>The datatable will then need to populate into datagridview, however nothing appears in it.</p>
  
  <pre><code>        Dim plt As New System.Data.DataTable 
  
  
      Dim rowData As String() = output.Split(New Char() {","}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)
      Dim row As DataRow = PLT.NewRow()
  
  
      dataGridView1.DataSource = PLT
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I don't get any errors, but it's also not populating the gridview so I don't know if it's just failing to populate or if the table itself never got populated from the string.</p>
