Hi,
I'm populating a DataGrid inside my WPF window like this
'dgFollowup.DataContext = ds.Tables[0]' .
Can any one tell me how to Hide or make a column invisible inside the DataGrid.

Thanks & Regards,
Ramana

dataGrid2.Columns[0].Visibility = Visibility.Hidden;

I assume that you are using automatic column population to populate your grid. If you want to hide a column, then you can't really do this - you need to explicitly set the column information manually. To do this, use something like this:
XML
<dg:DataGrid x:Name="dgFollowUp" AutoGenerateColumns="False">
  <dg:DataGrid.Columns>
    <dg:DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Column1}" Header="Column 1" />
    <dg:DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Column2}" Header="Column 1" />
  </dg:DataGrid.Columns>
</dg:DataGrid AutoGenerateColumns="False">

Thank you Pete O'Hanlon.

You are welcome. I am glad to help.
Additionally, While
AutoGenerateColumns="True" you can handle the WPF datagrid event: DataGrid1_AutoGeneratingColumn(....)
you will find e.Column.Header, compare the columns which all you want to hide, then simply do as e.Column.Visibility = visibility.Hidden
