i was using datagrid for WPF, and generate the datagrid and add to StackPanel in window dynamiclly,

and i do not have a xaml side code of the control,

 my code was like :

 DataGridControl dataGrid = new DataGridControl();
                dataGrid.AutoCreateColumns = false;
                dataGrid.ReadOnly = true;
                dataGrid.AllowDrag = true;
                dataTable.TableName = dataTable.TableName;
                dataGrid.HorizontalAlignment = System.Windows.HorizontalAlignment.Stretch;
                dataGrid.VerticalAlignment = System.Windows.VerticalAlignment.Stretch;
                dataGrid.Background = DataGridControlBackgroundBrushes.ElementalSilver;
                dataGrid.Margin = new Thickness(0, 5, 0, 5);
                dataGrid.FontFamily = new FontFamily("Arial");
                dataGrid.FontSize = 10;

 and then set each datarow and each cell data.

finally, i got a "Drag a column header here to group by that column" on top of the table, how can i remove this line?

 and also, how can i show a table name?

Hi bingqiao,

The control at the top of the table is called the GroupByControl and you can hide that part of the DataGrid by implementing the following method:

----------

public void DoHeaders()
{
       this.dataGridControl1.View.UseDefaultHeadersFooters = false;
       this.dataGrid.View.FixedHeaders.Clear();
       DataTemplate columnHeaderTemplate = new DataTemplate();
       columnHeaderTemplate.VisualTree = new FrameworkElementFactory(typeof(ColumnManagerRow));
       TableView DataGridView = new TableView();

       DataGridView.FixedHeaders.Add(columnHeaderTemplate);
       this.dataGrid.View = DataGridView;
}

----------

The important thing is to remove the default Headers/Footers, but the issue would be that you will lose the ColumnManagerRow as well. As you can see above, we have to re-insert it into the DataGridControl.

As for displaying the Table Name, do you mean that you wish to show the TableName of the DataTable in a header? If this is the case, I would suggest putting that information in a TextBlock on top of your DataGridControl instead. We do not support a title header within the DataGridControl.

Hmm... That didn't work for me.
That box that says "Drag a column header here to group by that column." is still visible.
And now I have two rows of column headers at the top.
I'm using version 3.7.10226.11110.
Any ideas?

Thanks,
Greg
