Hide automatically generated column fields in GridView ASP.NET GridView Posted on 12/26/2007 7:04:19 AM in #ASP.NET   ASP.NET Social Bar? Get A Free one here! When you bind a GridView to an ObjectSource in ASP.NET, sometimes, you don't want to display all of the columns returned from the ObjectSource DataTable, but if you use a GridView and let it autmatically generate the columns, it becomes not a striaght forward deal to hide the individual selected columns. Here is a way to do that: Simply catch the RowDataBound event on the GridView and if you know the index of the column to hide, just use it as follows: protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e) {     if (e.Row.Cells.Count >= 1)         e.Row.Cells[1].Visible = false; } Assuming you want to hide the second column in your automatically generated GridView.

dhaval shah Posted on 9/11/2008 3:00:47 AM This will hide the row only but what about Header??

Henry Posted on 6/24/2008 10:39:27 AM This is only hiding the datarow cells and not the header row?

Sirrocco Posted on 12/27/2007 12:05:34 AM Just set AutoGenerateColumns to false (property on the gridview) , then bind whatever you need like : asp:BoundField DataField="...

Yousef Posted on 12/26/2007 11:20:59 PM Sid: that would require me to add a bound field column in advance to my DataGrid and bind it to a corresponding DataField, however, my GridView is populated automatically with columns.

Sid Posted on 12/26/2007 3:54:57 PM Why not just set the Visible property of the fields in the ASPX page? <asp:BoundField Visible = "false" />
