Solution 1

Hello Dear,

For the header there is no use of using a different datasource. You can use your datasource to bind the data it will take automatically the dataset header name as the header. If you want not to show some columns then you can hide it by the hidden property in row_intialization event.

Hi!

I need the header to be displayed, but the headername is dynamic and changes from day to day. i cannot use autogenerated column names because it's static.

I soved it by changing all the column headers in the code behind, i would prefered to solve it with data binding but anyway it works.

C#

this.datagridname.Columns[0].header = "headertext";

I just change the headertext on all my columns this with the string from my datasource.
