You have to use column styles. Look up the DataGridColumnStyle class in the help/MSDN for more info. Also, the Windows Forms FAQ link in my signature has a wealth of information on working with a DataGrid as well as many other WinFoems controls.

Change Header Text of Datagrid

Hi ,

Exactly I don't get any solution
But wat i planned to do is to change the caption in the SQL
Query itself .
So that the changed caption will take the position
of the Header text of bound datagrid.

May this helps.

The easiest way to give columns in a DataGrid the look you want is to use a DataGridTableStyle and to add a GridColumnStyle for each column in the grid.

col1.HeaderText = "Order Date"
