Add columns in Datagrid

Hi
I want to add columns in a Datagrid and I want the Columnheaders to show and
empty cells to show without adding any records. For example, sometimes there
aren 't any records in the database, which the datagrid is based on or you
haven't added anything to the columns. How do I do that and how do I add
things to the columns if the Datagrid is not bound to a database or want to
add things not from a database.

Hope you understand what I mean with my questions, have a hard time myself.

Happy for answers

Fia,

A datagrid, assuming is windows forms is never binded to a database. It is
almost forever binded direct or indirect to a datatable. You can add as much
columns to that as you wish. Be aware that added columns will not be
updated.

I think that in this sample is all you need.

I hope this helps,

Cor

The DataGrid allows you to make columns visible or invisible on demand - even edit and other special columns. This article will show you how it is done. Some developers have reported problems controlling the visibility of columns in the DataGrid control. The problem usually comes down to one fact. The DataGrid has a property called AutoGenerateColumns. The default value is "True". This means that when AutoGenerateColumns is set to True,...

I have a datagrid that will display different datasets, (it runs different sprocs based on a value in the querystring) but it will always return 6 columns.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
