Question

How can I change gridview templatecolumn order dynamically?

Answer 1

1. Iterate through all columns of the GridView object and Store them in a collection.

   List<DataControlField> columns = new List<DataControlField>();
   foreach (DataControlField column in gv.Columns)
   {
       columns.Add(column);
   }
   

2. Rearrange the column-objects as you want in the collection.

   //Rearrange columns' collection..
   

3. Clear all columns of the GridView object and add columns from the collection to GridView object.

    gv.Columns.Clear();
    foreach (DataControlField column in columns)
    {
        gv.Columns.Add(column);
    }
