Hello, i am trying to rename the column header of a datagrid that is being pupulated from a dataset that i got from my Database.
The problem is that i need to create a mapping to map new names to the columns headers different from the ones extracted from the database.

The following is my code and its not working ... error:TableStyles cannot be resolved.

 DataGridTableStyle myGridStyle =
                    new DataGridTableStyle ();
                    myGridStyle.MappingName = "Users";

DataGridColumnStyle colStyle1 =
                    new DataGridBoolColumn ();
                    colStyle2.MappingName = "Salary";
                    DataGridColumnStyle colStyle2 =
                    new DataGridBoolColumn ();
                    colStyle2.MappingName = "Position";

                    // Add column styles to table style.
                    myGridStyle.GridColumnStyles.Add (colStyle1);
                    myGridStyle.GridColumnStyles.Add (colStyle2);

dgvResults.TableStyles.Add (myGridStyle);

Jinal's answer is correct. But an easier way is to rename the columns in Visual Studio.

Steps:
1. Select the Datagriview you want to modify.
2. Click the DataGridView tasks small button, and click the Edit Columns link
3. On the Edit Columns dialog, select the column you wish to rename, and change the HeaderText to your desired name.
4. Click OK and you're done!

Try following

Just assign your DataTable to datagridview, and change the name of the column header.

C#

dataGridView1.DataSource=dataSet1.Tables[0];
dataGridView1.Columns[0].HeaderText="My Custom Header";
