Hiding and Showing columns

Question

I currently have a GridDataControl bound to a DataTable.  I would like to allow the user to hide and show columns of their choosing.  How can specify hidden and visible columns of the GridDataControl?

Hi Mike,
You can use the following code to add or remove column from the data table through code behind.

Remove Column:

var col = dataGrid.VisibleColumns.Where(d => d.MappingName == "Description").FirstOrDefault();
this.dataGrid.VisibleColumns.Remove(col);
this.dataGrid.Model.InvalidateVisual(true);

Add Column:

dataGrid.VisibleColumns.Add(new GridDataVisibleColumn() { MappingName = "Description" });
