Datagrid Headers

[Chris Newald]

Hello,

I have a simple gridview with one column on a web page. I need to be able to
set the column titles ("Header Title" below) programatically. How would I
do this easily in C#? I tried inserting an ASP Label but I cannot get the
FindControl to work for the Header Template.

<aspataGrid ID="alertGrid" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false">
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateColumn>
<HeaderTemplate>
<b>Header Title</b>
</HeaderTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
</Columns>
</aspataGrid>

Thanks in advance,
Chris

<HeaderTemplate>
<asp:Label runat="server" id="lblHeader" Text="Header Title" />
</HeaderTemplate>

Add a label control in the header template then change it's value
inside the ItemDataBound event. I think it would be easier if you just
not put a header tempate and just use the column value of your
datasource instead.

I think this should work for you,

alertGrid.Columns[0].HeaderText="Header Title";

where 0 is the index of column
