Hi, Carl,

If the DataGrid has AutoGenerateColumns set to false - you can set the
HeaderText for each of the columns to whatever you want.

If AutoGenerateColumns is true (it is true by default, that is - if you
don't specify it it is true) the header text is taken from the corresponding
column of the DataSource. So, if your DataSource is a DataTable (or a
DataView of a DataTable) you can alter the header texts by changing the
corresponding Columns' ColumnName property of the DataTable.

Hope this helps

You don't have to touch the datasource. You can catch headers in ItemCreated
event and replace them there.
