multiple DataGrid headers with paging

[Guest]

I have a datagrid that has two headers... one that has the column titles, and
one above it that spans multiple columns as a grouping display ... example:

Members Dates
Types
Name Address Phone Start Finish Active
Inactive

header "Members" would be columnspan=3 "Dates" = 2 "Types" = 2 etc...

It all works great until paging gets involved. I have paging set to 100
records per page initially, with a dropdown to change it incrementally, with
PagerStyle-Pagebuttoncount=10. If there are 100 records or less,
pagerstyle.visible=False, so there is no problem. The problem I am having is
that when there are more than 100 records, the page numbers are inserted
between the first and second headers as well as at the bottom of the page. I
have set PagerStyle.Position = PagerPosition.Bottom, and tried numerous other
remedies, all to no avail.... can anyone help please??? Thanks in advance...

Perhaps this method of merging columns in header is more resistant
against paging.

Hi,
Could you please share the code of getting the two header rows in the datagrid. I want to do the same in my project , but have no idea of how to achieve it. Also I want to be able to create the columns dynamically.

I would appreciate any suggestion.

Thanks in advance

Did you closely view the above link?
There is the separate code for GridView and DataGrid.

If you mean that you set AutoGenerateColumns=true in your DataGrid -
no problem, it works in this case.
