AutoGenerateColumns="False">
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Sample Column">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Hyperlink runat="server" Text='<%
#Container.DataItem("TextVal")%>' NavigateUrl='<%
# "page.aspx?Param1=" & Server.UrlEncode
(Container.DataItem("Val1")) & "&Param2=" &
Server.UrlEncode(Container.DataItem("Val2"))'%>/>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>

</Columns>

I have autogeneratecolumns=true in a datagrid. Is it
possible to have a hyperlink column with a URLfield and
formatstring that are dynamically generated without hard
coding them.

<asp:HyperLinkColumn Text="Select" DataNavigateUrlField=<%=ds.Tables("Codes").Columns(0).ColumnName%>
DataNavigateUrlFormatString=<%=path &"?ID={0}"%

</asp:HyperLinkColumn>

Is there any other way like using a template column for

ahyperlink column?

Thanks. But I want the AutoGenerateColumns=TRUE, and then
create a hyperlink column from a dataset. I don't want to
hardcode the column name. Is is not possible to get it
work this way?

You could do it that way. Just put the full hyperlink into the database.

Store: <a href="www.msn.com" target="_blank">www.msn.com</a> in your
database and it will show up as www.msn.com in the datagrid.
