Answer 1

This is suppose to be the safest and error pron query :

    public void Load_Data()
        {
            using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(DatabaseServices.connectionString)) //use your connection string here
            {
                var bindingSource = new BindingSource();
                string fetachSlidesRecentSQL = "select top (50) * from dbo.slides order by created_date desc";
                using (SqlDataAdapter dataAdapter = new SqlDataAdapter(fetachSlidesRecentSQL, connection))
                {
                    try
                    {
                       SqlCommandBuilder commandBuilder = new SqlCommandBuilder(dataAdapter);

                        DataTable table = new DataTable();
                        dataAdapter.Fill(table);
                        bindingSource.DataSource = table;
                        recent_slides_grd_view.ReadOnly = true;
                        recent_slides_grd_view.DataSource = bindingSource;
                    }
                    catch (SqlException ex)
                    {
                       MessageBox.Show(ex.Message.ToString(), "ERROR Loading");
                    }
                    finally
                    {
                        connection.Close();
                    }
                }

            }
        }

Answer 2

if you are using mysql this code you can use.

string con = "SERVER=localhost; user id=root; password=; database=databasename";
    private void loaddata()
{
MySqlConnection connect = new MySqlConnection(con);
connect.Open();
try
{
MySqlCommand cmd = connect.CreateCommand();
cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM DATA1";
MySqlDataAdapter da = new MySqlDataAdapter(cmd);
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
da.Fill(dt);
datagrid.DataSource = dt;
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
}

You don't need bindingSource1

Just set dataGridView1.DataSource = table;
