In my application, I have the requirement to use gridview in many screens. So I want to create a user control and use it in all my screens. But, the columns in the gridview will change for every screen. So i want a generic user control for which the columns and data would be changing in every page.But I can't see Datasource in ASPX page when I call gridview usercontrol and bind data.

In your usercontrol you could create a property like a DataTable. In the user control you can bind that Datatable to the GridView.

Thanks digimanus. I called a property for datatable. but its not working. but I called propery datasource, it fetches datarecord but it is not displaying data on page.

This is just a though but you could create a WebControl that inherits from the original GridView (asp.net, devexpress, etc.) and then just extend the base gridview.
