DataGrid's Strange Problem

A

A DEVELOPER

my table has total 3 columns like emp_id(primay key),emp_name emp_address
i m populating my datagrid at run time successfully .
now i add functionality of hotmail model(checkboxex) in it successfully
but for this i did enhanced simple datagrid's functionality and
add one template column and placed label on it (so that i could do deletion
of records
selcted by user by checkboxes when a user clik on "Delete" button .
in label i took emp_id as field

NOW MY PROBLEM IS

"how can i hide my emp_id column at run time ..i need(want)
to see only 3 columns at run time(checkbox templte column
,emp_name,emp_address)
i tried DataGrid1.Columns[2].Visible=false(2 is number of emp_id)
but it did give following error..


Exception Details: System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index was out of
range.
Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter
name: index
DataGrid1.Columns[2].Visible=false;<----------------(error in this
line)
if i dont choose emp_id in SQL Query then a new error comes in my template
column.."Unknown Column name"

Is there some reason why you have to hide the emp_id column at
runtime? Why not just define your emp_id column in the HTML code like
this:

Datagrid open tag...>
<asp:boundcolumn DataField="emp_id" Visible="False" />
<...rest of datagrid columns...

Also, did you take into account that the Columns collection is
0-based? (the first is [0],[1],[2],etc.)

Finally, if you really need to hide it conditionally at runtime, you
will probably need to do it using an OnItemDataBound event handler. If
you do it before or after it's databound, it probably won't work.

in your DataGrid tag add the event:
OnItemDataBound="DataGrid1_ItemDataBound"

In your code-behind, write the method to hide the column - one row at
a time:

protected void DataGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender,
DataGridItemEventArgs e)
{
ListItemType thisType = (ListItemType)e.Item.ItemType;
// these types won't have the same controls - ignore them
if (thisType == ListItemType.Header || thisType ==
ListItemType.Separator
|| thisType == ListItemType.Footer)
return;

// hide the emp_id row - I am assuming here it's [2] as you said
e.Item.Controls[2].Visible = false;
}


- Eric
