I've followed this tutorial for binding hierarchy data:

http://www.telerik.com/help/winforms/gridview-hierarchical-grid-tutorial-binding-to-hierarchical-data.html

The data is displaying properly, and the Parent level template works as it should. However, the child level template is not working at all. Whether I use the grid property builder or the template collections interface, I can not customize which columns are visible or change header names etc. It always shows every single column from the table adapter. I need to be able to use foreign keys which are invisible, not to mention renaming headers or resizing columns.

Thanks for the help.

Hello,

Just as you can set column properties on the master template, you can also set the column properties on the child templates. So if you have a template set up called childTemplate, then you could specify
childTemplate.Columns["Name"].IsVisible = false;

You may also find this help topic on accessing and itterating columns useful.

Hope that helps but let me know if you need more information

Thanks for your help Richard!

Modifying the properties directly through code works.

I'm happy that I have my data displaying as it should. However, I wish telerik would have just built it in directly to avoid this confusion.
