Hi

You can use like this

C#

protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs 
{
    e.Row.Cells[0].Visible = false;
}

Try this:

C#

foreach (DataControlField col in gridView1.Columns)
            {
                if (col.HeaderText == "Name")
                {
                    col.Visible = false;
                }
            }

Sorry to disturb you Prasad.

Actually I have a question.. For example if i have a gridview containing some link button in it... and I want to show or hide that specific link on the basis of another column's value..

Can you give idea that how to do that???

Well, this is another question, you should ask a seperate one. For now, what you can do is something like this:

foreach (GridView item in gridView1.Rows)
        {
            if (item.SelectedRow.Cells[1].Text == "company1")
            {
                //Do not add your link button
            }
            else
            {
                  //Add link button
            }
        }
