Dynamically Build Grid

[Mark]

As I have had no joy from the 2 threads I have created to address the wrapping of header text in autogenerated columns

I would like your opinion on building the grid in code and assigning it from the code behind. If I create each column in code, adding them to a collection of columns and then assign the collection to the datagrid will I be able to convince the header text to wrap.

Note the header text comes from the database and IS NOT HARD CODED so the xaml definition does not work.

Hello,

 You could set the Header like so:

GridViewDataColumn column = new GridViewDataColumn();
column.DataMemberBinding = new System.Windows.Data.Binding("Name");
column.Width = 50;
var header = new TextBlock { Text = "Line1 very long line", TextWrapping=TextWrapping.Wrap};
column.Header = header;
this.clubsGrid.Columns.Add(column);

I hope that this is what you need.
