How to prevent datagrid(not a datagrid view) from vertical scrolling

Question

I have a dataGrid (not a datagridview) with 12 rows. The last row is partially visible. When I click the last row the datagrid rows scroll up and one row is added after the last row.But what I want is that the rows should not scroll at all and there should not be any new row added to the last one ie the state of datagrid rows positions should remain the same.I have the application written in VB.Net 2010 & sql server 2008.
It would be nice of you to guide me to a solution for the problem.

What I have tried:

1. datagrid.readonly = True ;does not work
2. There no option to freeze the datagrid.

~~Try DataGrid.CanUserAddRows Property (System.Windows.Controls)[^].~~

Datagrid does not have this property.

Thanks for the reply. Datagrid comes from two namespaces System.Windows.controls and system.windows.forms. My datagrid comes from system.windows.forms . Hence the application cannot include from the first namespaces.There is ambiguity in datagrid.How do I resolve this.

The DataGrid has been replaced by the DataGridView, which gives you more control.

But the project is built using DataGrid

Swap the existing DataGrid control in the project for a DataGridView. You may have to manually edit the code-behind when renaming the incoming control.
I suggest that you add the new control before deleting the old one and don't forget to take a backup of the project folder first
Find the formName.Designer.vb references

Friend WithEvents DataGridName As System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid
...
Me.DataGridName = New System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid()

and change to

Friend WithEvents DataGridName As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView
...
Me.DataGridName = New System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView()

You may also have to change code that references methods/properties of DataGrid that were not carried over to DataGridView (although I doubt it)
