How do I prevent a DataGridView from autoscrolling when the datasource changes?

Question

I tried this (http://brainof-dave.blogspot.com/2007/08/turning-off-auto-scrolling-in-bound.html) in the "RowChanged" event on the DataTable that is the data source for the DataGridView, but to no avail.

Basically, I have a DataGridView with a BindingSource as it's DataSource. The BindingSource's DataSource is a DataView that contains a DataTable. Every time data in one of the rows changes, the DataGridView scrolls back to the top. Is there a simple fix for this?

Looks like I found it: http://seewinapp.blogspot.com/2005/09/is-your-autoscroll-too-auto.html

I overrode the RowChanged event on the DataTable, stored the FirstDisplayedScrollingRowIndex, invoked a delegate method with that index as the argument, and then reset the FirstDisplayedScrollingRowIndex to that argument inside the delegate method. It turns out that auto-scroll doesn't occur until after all events have been fired, so it's useless to try to hack it inside an event. The delegate works because it is invoked after the events.
