Bill,

Thanks, I have been hiding and showing the columns using the visible property at runtime and this works. I was wondering if there was another way.

I see that I can do the following at runtime, I thought that I could also perhaps define the DataField at runtime.
this.MyTable.Columns[1].HeaderText = "Whatever"

Thanks,

Jerry
