bool Empty = true;

    {
        if (dataGridView1.Rows[i].Cells[j].Value != null && dataGridView1.Rows[i].Cells[j].Value.ToString() != "")
        {

Check with the source before binding to datagridview

Like if you're using DataTable to bind datagridview then you can use following procedure.

C#
foreach(DataRow row in dt.Rows)
       {
           bool IsEmpty = false;
           foreach (object obj in row.ItemArray)
           {
               if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(obj.ToString()))
               {
                   IsEmpty = true;
               }
               else
               {
                   IsEmpty = false;
               }
           }
           if (IsEmpty)
           {
               dt.Rows.Remove(row);
           }
}


Thanks.

Before you bind data to gridview you should check for empty lines in source.

In short before Gridview.DataBind(); just check all the rows.
now I find a neat solution:

yourDataGridView.AllowUserToAddRows = false;

This has nothing to do with the question.

the empty row is designed behavior for Windows designer.
so this statement will remove the last empty row.

you can test what I said....
