[Solved] Dynamic Column hiding in Radgrid

[satya]

Hi,

    I have a problem with hiding of a column which is added at run time. Actually i will be using DataTable as the datasource to the RadGrid. So now I wan to make few columns in the datatable invisible. After when i have given the datatable as datasource to the grid  when i have seen the column count of radgrid it is showing nothing. So i am unable to make a column invisible.
I had use concept of Datatable because all my columns will be retrieved from Database based on user creation.So the column names or column count will be dynamic.

Could you please help me out on this.


Thanks & Regards,
Satya.

Hi atya,

I guess you want to hide AutoGeneratedColumns from code behind. If so try the following code snippet.
C#:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (RadGrid1.MasterTableView.RenderColumns.Length > 5)
    {
        RadGrid1.MasterTableView.RenderColumns(5).Display = false;
        RadGrid1.MasterTableView.RenderColumns(6).Display = false;
    }
}
