Grid Column Header

[Fred Marechal]

Hi,

Could you let me know how to obtain the list of column names (headers) fron a grid (not the underlying data).

I tried something like this:

for (int i = 0; i < mainGrid.Model.ColumnCount; i++)
{
string name = GridRangeInfo.GetAlphaLabel(i);
}

However, I obtain the name = "A" , name = "B", name = "C", etc... instead of the real column names, e.g. name = "ID", name = "Name", name = "Address"

Could you advise please?

Thank you

Fred

HI Fred,

Thanks for your update. You can achieve this requirement by using the below code snippet,

///Way #1
List _columnHeaders = new List();
foreach (GridDataVisibleColumn vc in this.dataGrid.VisibleColumns)
{
if (vc.HeaderText == null || vc.HeaderText == "")
{
_columnHeaders.Add(vc.MappingName);
}
else
{
_columnHeaders.Add(vc.HeaderText);
}
}

///Way #2
List _columnHeaders1 = new List();
int tempIndex = 0;
if (this.dataGrid.ShowRowHeader)
{
tempIndex = tempIndex + 1;
}

if (this.dataGrid.GroupedColumns.Count > 0)
{
tempIndex = tempIndex + this.dataGrid.GroupedColumns.Count;
}

for (int col = tempIndex; col < this.dataGrid.Model.ColumnCount; col++)
{
_columnHeaders1.Add(this.dataGrid.Model[0, col].CellValue.ToString());
}
