Datagrid column name

[gane]

Any ideas on how to assign value to a datagrid cell referencing the column
name?
I would like to assign a value to a datagrid item using the column name
(from web.config file) instead of using something like e.item.cell[1].text
in itemdatabound

Thanks

Do you want the datagrid to manage the value once you enter it?

Its is for the display purpose and not indented for editing.
Is that what u mean?

I have something like this in my code.
if(e.Item.ItemType==ListItemType.Item ||

e.Item.ItemType==ListItemType.AlternatingItem)

{
// Get and customize Property Code from locationptr string

DataRowView rv = (DataRowView)e.Item.DataItem;
string strLocation =
Convert.ToString(rv.Row["locationptr"]);//rv.Row.ItemArray[5]);

string[] arrLocation = GetLocation(strLocation,',');

string strStreet = arrLocation[0].ToString();

if (strStreet != "")

{

e.Item.Cells[5].Text = strStreet; // ??

}
