Hi Agnes,

You need tablestyles and columnstyles for what you want to do, it is in this
page however not at the top.

I hope this helps?

Cor

my grid is bind to a large table.
in my select command text = "select code,name ,address1,address2"
the datagrid show 4 columns, How can I only set it to "show two columns "
???

As the users selected the row, I need to return
"code,name,address1,address2" ,
so I think I can't list view and I should not show all columns to the
datagrid

Thanks
from Agnes

From Agnes ^_^
