datatable and autogeneratecol umns question

[M]

My problem is that AutogenerateCol umns="false" does not work with the datatable I built from a hashtable.
(Please don't ask why I'm pulling data from a database, putting it in a hashtable, then putting it into a datatable.)

Everything works great, including hiding the column on the fly. Problem is, the rest of the datatable data/columns still prints out in the
datagrid via autogeneration. So I have duplicate columns....the ones I designated as bound columns, plus the ones that get autogenerated.

Thanks in advance.
Here is the web page code:

<asp:datagrid id="DataGrid5" Runat="server" AutoGenerateCol umns="False">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundColum n DataField="Name " HeaderText="Nam e"></asp:BoundColumn >
<asp:BoundColum n DataField="RepC ode" HeaderText="Rep Code"></asp:BoundColumn >
</Columns>
</asp:datagrid>

Here is the code behind code:

DataTable myT = new DataTable();
myT= sc.getSecurityI nfo(1001, 1010, 1, myDiv, true, false);
for(i=0; i < myT.Columns.Cou nt; i++)
{
BoundColumn col = new BoundColumn();
col.DataField = myT.Columns[i].ColumnName;
col.HeaderText = myT.Columns[i].ColumnName;
if (col.DataField == myT.Columns["RepCode"].ColumnName)
{
col.Visible = false;
}

DataGrid5.Colum ns.Add(col);
DataGrid5.DataS ource = myT;
DataGrid5.DataB ind();
}
Here is the C# snippet of middle tier code that builds the datatable:

DataSet ds = new DataSet();
DataTable myT;
myT = ds.Tables.Add(" Company");
DataRow row = ds.Tables["Company"].NewRow();
//Create the Customers DataTable.

int sizeOfHash = fu.sizeOfHashTa ble(securedComp anyHash);
object[] aValues = new string [sizeOfHash];
int thisI = 0;
foreach(Diction aryEntry entry in securedCompanyH ash)
{

string key = Convert.ToStrin g(entry.Key);

myT.Columns.Add (key, typeof(string)) ;

string val = Convert.ToStrin g(entry.Value);

row[key] = val;

if (val == null || val.Length == 0)
{
}else{

aValues[thisI] = val;
thisI++;
}
}

ds.Tables["Company"].LoadDataRow(aV alues, false);

return myT;

I figured it out. I had a DataGrid5.Colum ns.Add command in there. (sheesh!).
