I have a List of data holder

IList<dataholder> dataList = new List<dataholder>();

dataList = GetDataList();
datagridview1.dataSource = datalist;
</dataholder></dataholder>

from the above code i am able to set my datasource with the dataholder class properties as the column header

I have an array of string with custom column headers text..
How can i keep this array values as my DataGridview column header text even after setting the data source
