I think Alex called "invalidateDisplayList" a "big hammer".
The best solution to this is to never use Array, or XMLList for dynamic dataProviders, since their methods do not dispatch the necessary events to update the UI. Instead, wrap Array in ArrayCollection, and CMLList in XMLListCollection, or use XML directly.

Call refresh() on what? The dataGrid doesn't have a refresh() method. It is an Array rather than an ArrayCollection. Could that be the problem? This could require a lot of refactoring! Scratch all that... myDatagrid.invalidateDisplayList() did the trick!
