how to make certain column invisible in gridview

For this purpose access records from database and bind to gridview as usual. Only set visible property of DataGridViewColumn class as False after binding gridview as below:

DataGridViewColumn column2 = dataGridView1.Columns[1];  // to hide 2nd column 
column2.Visible = false;

Hope this will help you.

Try

gridview1.Columns[index].Visible = false;

You can use Bound data field for the gridview and select only those columns which you need to display in the gridview.


I.e set the header text and and the data value field foe each bound field.


The data value field name should be the name of you columns in your DB table to which you are binding the gridview.



I Hope this will help you!!!
