I have a GridView in Webform application. I have defined all the columns in the aspx page.
In one scenario my logic is not returning one column that is defined in aspx page as following:

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Inventory Status">
  <ItemTemplate>
   <asp:Label ID="lblInventoryStatus"
  CssClass="rptheadingwithBottom" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Inventory Status")%>'>
   </asp:Label>
  </ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

The

Inventory Status

Column is not returning thus generating error in code. What i want to know is there any way other than

AutoGenerateColumns= true

to display this column or hide this column based on logic.

What I have tried:

Try having column names without spaces in, or try surrounding Inventory Status with square brackets (will not work prior to VS2010)

Hi..,

Set AutoGenerateColumns= false
Column Name use without space InventoryStatus

You can try this way

<asp:Label ID="lblInventoryStatus"
CssClass="rptheadingwithBottom" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("InventoryStatus") %>'>

</asp:Label>
