Hi Kallyani,

If you are binding a System.DataTable to the GridGroupingControl in code, such as ...

this.GridGroupingControl1.DataSource = myDataTable;
this.GridGroupingControl1.DataBind();

I have found that it is much easier to first change the column names in the DataTable, such as ...

int i = 0;
foreach (DataColumn col in myDataTable.Columns)
{
i ++;
col.ColumnName = "Column Number " + i;
}

If you are not binding to a DataTable at runtime, this solution will not work. In that case, I defer to someone else because I have never changed the GridGroupingControl column names after DataBind().

Hi Kallyani,

Thanks for using Syncfusion products.

The HeaderText property is used to set desired text to the ColumnHeader. Please refer the below code snippet which illustrates this:


this.GridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.Columns[0].HeaderText = "ID";


Please refer the sample from the below link, which illustartes this:

Please let me know if you have any other concerns.

I regret to let you know that currently we do not provide support for this feature in our code library. We have notified our development team on this regard and will get back to you once we hear back from them.
