Annoying isn't it?  There are probably many solutions to this problem, 
but the one that I use is:

 >           self.grid.AutoSizeColumns(True)
 >           #self.Refresh(True, self.grid.GetRect())
             self.twiddle()

     def twiddle(self):
         x,y = self.GetSize()
         self.SetSize((x, y+1))
         self.SetSize((x,y))

This forces a repaint of the window and will also add scroll bars if 
necessary.  You are welcome to join us on the wxpython user list as well 
for more in-depth answers.

You have an unrelated bug in your code as well:

for i in len(row):

should be
for i in range(len(row)):
