Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to set the Header property in XAML. This example is part of a larger example available in the DataGrid class overview.

<sdk:DataGrid x:Name="dataGrid4" 
    Height="160" Margin="0,5,0,10" 
    RowHeight="40" AutoGenerateColumns="False" >    
    <sdk:DataGrid.Columns>
        <sdk:DataGridTextColumn 
            Header="First Name" 
            Width="SizeToHeader"
            Binding="{Binding FirstName}" 
            FontSize="20" />
        <sdk:DataGridTextColumn 
            Header="Last Name" 
            Width="SizeToCells"
            Binding="{Binding LastName}" 
            FontSize="20" />
        <sdk:DataGridTextColumn 
            Header="Address"
            Width="150"
            Binding="{Binding Address}" >
            <sdk:DataGridTextColumn.ElementStyle>
                <Style TargetType="TextBlock">
                    <Setter Property="TextWrapping" Value="Wrap"/>
                </Style>
            </sdk:DataGridTextColumn.ElementStyle>
            <sdk:DataGridTextColumn.EditingElementStyle>
                <Style TargetType="TextBox">
                    <Setter Property="Foreground" Value="Blue"/>
                </Style>
            </sdk:DataGridTextColumn.EditingElementStyle>
        </sdk:DataGridTextColumn>
        <sdk:DataGridCheckBoxColumn 
            Header="New?" 
            Width="40"
            Binding="{Binding IsNew}" />
        <sdk:DataGridCheckBoxColumn 
            Header="Subscribed?" 
            Width="Auto"
            Binding="{Binding IsSubscribed}" 
            IsThreeState="True" />
    </sdk:DataGrid.Columns>
</sdk:DataGrid>

The following code example demonstrates how to set the Header property in code. This example is part of a larger example available in the How to: Customize Auto-Generated Columns in the DataGrid Control topic.

' Create a new template column.
Dim templateColumn As New DataGridTemplateColumn
templateColumn.Header = "Due Date"
templateColumn.CellTemplate = Me.Resources("dueDateCellTemplate")
templateColumn.CellEditingTemplate = Me.Resources("dueDateCellEditingTemplate")
templateColumn.SortMemberPath = "DueDate"

// Create a new template column.
DataGridTemplateColumn templateColumn = new DataGridTemplateColumn();
templateColumn.Header = "Due Date";
templateColumn.CellTemplate = (DataTemplate)Resources["dueDateCellTemplate"];
templateColumn.CellEditingTemplate = (DataTemplate)Resources["dueDateCellEditingTemplate"];
templateColumn.SortMemberPath = "DueDate";
