DataGrid without binding

[CD]

If I am presenting a DataGrid to the user in which the contents cannot be
changed, is there a way to have the data automatically bound? I want to
issue a freeform select statement and have the data populate a DataGrid, but
I do not want to have to config each column with the details of the data
just in order to get it to display.
I guess in leiu of this, is there some magic code that will dynamically bind
the data given the sqlConnectin/session that was used to select the data.

Thanks

You can set AutoGenerateColumns property of the datagrid to true

CD,

The defaultview of the datatable has a lot of properties for that.

You can use this as
myDataTable.DefaultView.AllowEdit = false;
etc.

I hope this helps?
