Hi Pyla,

Please do the following:

1. set AutoColumn=True in your datagrid
2. create columns based on your logic like

C#

DataTable dt = new DataTable();
        for (int c = 1; c <= 10; c++)
        {
            DataColumn dc = new DataColumn("Column" + c.ToString(), System.Type.GetType("System.String"));
            dt.Columns.Add(dc);
        }

        GridView1.Datasource = dt;
        GridView1.DataBind();

Please do let me know, if you have any doubt.

Please provide Vote if this would be helpful to you.

Thanks,
Imdadhusen

public static DataTable dtValues;

C#

protected void CreateDataTable()
       {
           dtValues = new DataTable();
           dtValues.Columns.Add("Id");
           dtValues.Columns.Add("Item");
           dtValues.Columns.Add("Rate");
           dtValues.Columns.Add("Qty");
           dtValues.Columns.Add("Amount");
       }

these 5 columns will be created dynamically

than add it

MIDL

gvOrders.DataSource = dtValues;
                gvOrders.DataBind();

hope that works..
