Change HeaderText of datagrid after binding

Hi,
I got a datagrid which I want to change the headertext after binding.
Because I have a multi-lingual app and I allow the user to change the
language on-the-fly. However, the headertext changes only after the
2ND TIME I pressed the Change language button. I'm doing the change
during the Page_Load event and I suppose the ASP.NET takes the
values of the headertexts BEFORE it, so it will be showed only on the
next time!
My question is what is the correct event I should catch and change the
text?
Many thanks in advance!

Using the datagrid's ItemCreated event is probably the best choice. The
ItemDataBound won't work in this case because the header is not an item (not
associated with a data). See for example:
