Greetings Experts!

Problem :

While filtering the GridView, I need to show only 5 fields in GridView (using VB.NET) from the table having arround 20 fields.

Current Situation:

I have a table in MS SQL DB 'tbl_Address' which contains detailed address of customer and has arround 20 fields in it.

I am able to fetch the information as I want during the page load. But when I try to apply filter and reload the table data, it shows entire 20 columns in the gridview.

Could you please suggest me how should I achieve what I want?
(..Using any best and convinient way I want to acheve it..)

Your replies are appreciated in advance!

Thank you very much.

Solution 1

In this case you can remove the columns by using DataTableCollection.RemoveAt function in front-end or you can limit the number of columns in database itself.

I'll suggest you to go through following links:

MSDN : DataTableCollection.RemoveAt Method[^]

I appreciate your answer Amit.

I am not able to limit the number of columns because I am trying to provide some special filtering facility for user.
- I need user to be able to apply filter on the fields which are not being displayed.

I will soon try the solutions (two links) given by you.

Thanks.
