problem is, I placed a grid in my pageview and I am trying to programmatically add columns in it: my code is

Dim sConnectionString As String = "conn ..."

con.ConnectionString = sConnectionString

con.Open()
and i get data in my array. and i am binding this data to gidcolumns:

Dim

boundColumn As GridBoundColumn

boundColumn =

New GridBoundColumn

boundColumn.DataField = orderdata(11)

boundColumn.HeaderText =

"data"

RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(boundColumn)
but I dont see my grid during run time at all.

Hi Anna,

To define the structure of a RadGrid control that is declared in the ASPX page, use the Page_Load event handler. Columns and detail table should be added to the corresponding collection first, before the values for their properties are set.

CS:

private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
  if ( !IsPostBack )
  {
    GridBoundColumn boundColumn;

    //Important: first Add column to the collection
    boundColumn = new GridBoundColumn();
    this.RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(boundColumn);

    //Then set properties
    boundColumn.DataField = "CustomerID";
    boundColumn.HeaderText = "CustomerID";
  }
}

Thanks
Princy.
