According to me that's not possible, when you add new column dynamically in datatable, it will inserted at last index. But why you want to insert new column in between Name and Address? I don't see any reason behind it.

Solution 1

you can use insert as shown below :

C#

DataControlField field = new AutoGeneratedField("ProductId");
field.HeaderText = "Product Id";

this.GridView2.Columns.Insert(1, field);
this.GridView2.DataBind();

above code will insert column at index 1.

If you want add new column at '0' Index of table then use this
----------------------------------------------------------------

DataTable dt = new DataTable();//Your DT
DataColumn col1 = new DataColumn("Profession", System.Type.GetType("System.String"));
col1.AllowDBNull = true;
col1.DefaultValue = "";
dt.Columns.Add(col1);
col1.SetOrdinal(0);
