Forms Data Controls :: DataSet Populated But Data Does Not Display In GridView

I have the following code:
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Data;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Xml.Linq;
using Oracle.DataAccess.Client; // ODP.NET Oracle managed provider
using Oracle.DataAccess.Types;

namespace MyTestApp {
public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page {
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection("User Id=UID; Password=PWD; Data Source=XE; Pooling=false"); try { conn.Open(); } catch ( OracleException oe ){
Console.WriteLine("ERROR : " + oe.Message); }
if ( !Page.IsPostBack ) {
if (conn.State == ConnectionState.Open) {
// get data GetMoleculesToShow(conn); } }
// clean up connection conn.Dispose(); }
static void GetMoleculesToShow( OracleConnection conn ){
String division; String rxotc; String molecule_name;
String prodnum; String proddesc; String molecule_class; String nonactive;
// create command object and set attributes
OracleCommand cmd = new OracleCommand("schema.package.procedure", conn);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
//Bind values
cmd.Parameters.Add("mol_to_show_cur", OracleDbType.RefCursor);
cmd.Parameters[0].Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; try {
// Execute command, have parameters populated cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
// Create OracleDataAdapter, data provider object to populate dataset
OracleDataAdapter da = new OracleDataAdapter(cmd);
//Populate dataset with "molrefcur"
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
da.Fill(ds, "mol_to_show_cur", (OracleRefCursor)(cmd.Parameters["mol_to_show_cur"].Value));
//Verify dataset is begin populated //DataTable dt = ds.Tables[0];
//foreach ( DataRow dr in ds.Tables[0].Rows ) //{
// division = dr["division"].ToString();
// rxotc = dr["rxotc"].ToString();
// molecule_name = dr["molecule_name"].ToString();
// prodnum = dr["prodnum"].ToString();
// proddesc = dr["proddesc"].ToString();
// molecule_class = dr["molecule_class"].ToString();
// nonactive = dr["nonactive"].ToString(); //}
if (ds.Tables[0].Rows.Count != 0) {
// display dataset values GridView gvMolecules = new GridView();
gvMolecules.DataSource = ds.Tables["mol_to_show_cur"].Rows;
gvMolecules.DataBind(); } }
catch (OracleException oe) {
Console.WriteLine("ERROR : " + oe.Message); }
finally { cmd.Dispose(); } } } }

The dataset is being populated, however when the page renders, the data nor the gridview are visible. I have tried using both IE and Firefox, binding / not binding the columns, AutoGenerateColumns Y / N with no success. As I am new to all of this ( VS2008, ASP.NET, C# ) I can't help but to think I am overlooking something basic.

I am using the following :
- VS 2008
- MS Vista SP2
- Oracle XE ( local )
