Move bound column to right of dynamic column in datagrid?

[John E.]

I have a datatable that I am binding to a C# ASP.NET 1.1 web page datagrid.
I also
want to put an "Edit" column on the datagrid. However, whenever I use the
following code, it puts the Edit column on the left. I cannot figure out
how to get it to the right, as there is no DataGridTableStyle for ASP as
there is for an application.
I am doing the following on page load: (where dgItem is my datagrid):

EditCommandColumn editColumn = new EditCommandColumn();
editColumn.ButtonType = ButtonColumnType.LinkButton;
editColumn.CancelText = "Cancel";
editColumn.EditText = "Edit";
editColumn.HeaderText = "Edit";
editColumn.UpdateText = "Save";

dgItem.DataSource = ReturnsPopulatedDataTable();
dgItem.Columns.AddAt(1, editColumn);
/*also tried dgItem.Columns.AddAt(dgItem.Columns.Count, editColumn); without
success*/
dgItem.DataBind();

The edit column keeps showing up on the far left of the grid. Any ideas how
to get it to be added to the right side of the DataTable, instead?

Any help appreciated.
Thanks,

-John

One guess:
are you using datagrid with *create columns automatically at run time
option* chosen? if so it generates those columns at run time after the fixed
columns. so you should disable it and assign columns at design time.

Thanks for the response! Yes, I have it set to create columns at runtime.
Is there a way to put the fixed columns to the right of runtime columns
instead of their default location on the left?

Thanks,
