Hi All,

I have a datagridview and have bounded my datasource.
When the gridview is loaded, the column name follows the table attributes name.

Example:
catID desc catName

I want to rename the column to Cat ID, Description, Category Name

How do I do that?

Please help me.

Thanks in Advance.

Though I would prefer Prasad's solution but if you don't want to touch your query, you can try below solution:
Handle "ColumnAdded" event and based on the

e.Column.DataPropertyName

property you can set

e.Column.HeaderText

property.
