I have a DataSet that is returned from a WebService that has five data
fields in it. The client is a Windows Form and the code is all in C#. The
table that is in the Dataset has these data columns: TaskID, ProjectID,
TaskDesc, Hours, Date.
Just binding that to a DataGrid works fine. BUT... I don't want the TaskID
and ProjectID columns to be displayed on the DataGrid at all. In ASP.NET I
was told I could do something like DataGrid1.Columns[1].Visible = false; I
have not verified this will work, but I can't do this in a Windows Work
DataGrid. I don't want to removed the two ID columns from the DataSet
because one (TaskID) is the primary key, and will be used for other
operations, including updating the data, and the other one (ProjectID) will
be used for filtering the data.
Any Help??

Hi Chris,
It is much harder to do this in Windows Form as opposed to a
Web Form. However, if you are using Visual Studio .NET you can use the Data
Form Wizard ie. right click on the project and select Add New Item, then
select the data form wizard, you will be given the option of which columns
you want displayed.

Chris,
You can also do this in code directly, especially when you have a
generic DataSet. Use the TableStyles property of the DataGrid class,
which is a DataGridTableStyle collection. These styles in turn contain
DataGridColumnStyle collections, which can customize the columns in the
grid.
You can probably search for an example online, or this is discussed in
detail in chapter 17 of my book.

This feature is available if you use DataGridColumnStyle. i.e:
DataGridColumnStyle dgcsC1 = new DataGridTextBox();
dgcsC1.Alignment = HorizontalAlignment.Left;
dgcsC1.HeaderText = "Task Description";
dgcsC1.Width = 150;
dgcsC1.NullText = "";
dgcsC1.MappingName = "TaskDesc";
For each column in the table you want shown, you have to create a DataGridColumnStyle object, from either DataGridTextBox or DataGridBool class.
Then you create DataGridTableStyle(s), and add DataGridColumnStyle objects to its GridColumnStyles collection, i.e:
DataGridTableStyle _gridStyle1 = new DataGridTableStyle();
_gridStyle1.GridColumnStyles.Add(dgcsC1);
_gridStyle1.GridColumnStyles.Add(dgcsC2);
_gridStyle1.GridColumnStyles.Add(dgcsC3);
_gridStyle1.GridColumnStyles.Add(dgcsC4);
_gridStyle1.GridColumnStyles.Add(dgcsC5);
_gridStyle1.GridColumnStyles.Add(dgcsC6);
_gridStyle1.ReadOnly = false;
_gridStyle1.AllowSorting = false;
_gridStyle1.ForeColor = Color.Black;
_gridStyle1.HeaderBackColor = Color.MediumAquamarine;
_gridStyle1.HeaderForeColor = Color.Black;
_gridStyle1.HeaderFont = new System.Drawing.Font("Verdana", 8.25F, System.Drawing.FontStyle.Bold, System.Drawing.GraphicsUnit.Point, ((System.Byte)(0)));
_gridStyle1.RowHeadersVisible = true;
_gridStyle1.RowHeaderWidth = 12;
_gridStyle1.GridLineColor = Color.Black;
_gridStyle1.MappingName = "TableName";
The MappingName is the name of the table in the DataSet object. You can have several tables in a DataSet object, so naturally you must create DataGridTableStyle objects for each table.
Finally you add the DataGridTableStyle(s) to the TableStyles collection of the DataSet, i.e:
this.dataGrid1.DataSource = myDataSet;
this.dataGrid1.DataMember = "TableName";
this.dataGrid1.TableStyles.Add(_gridStyle1);
And that should be it...
