Please note that using DataBind() to bind the grid is not recommended. Performing complex grid operations such as Inserting, Deleting, Updating, Hierarchy relations, Grouping, Exporting, Paging, Sorting, Filtering, etc. require accommodating appropriate database operations. Therefore, we suggest you to avoid Simple Databinding and strongly recommend the use of more advanced databinding methods, which automatically handle the aforementioned functions: Declarative DataSource Advanced Data Binding
I'm also sending a sample RadGrid web site to demonstrate a basic implementation. Please run the attached application and let me know if it helps you.
