If you need guiding then you would be better served by searching for a tutorial rather than a Q&A.

WPF and Silverlight don't do dynamic happily, you need to create a collect that reflects your display content and move the records from your datatable into the collection to be displayed.

In xaml you need to define each column and map it to a filed in the collection.

If you truly need a dynamic View then you are going to need to research it using the UI control you intend to use. Eg with Telerik I have seen examples where the Viewmodel buils up a collection of columns and they are bound to the datagrid.

Would you care to give me any kind of examples or any thing through which i could understand the concepts. I have tried with simple MVVM but not well verse with Prism.
Your help would be highly appreciable.

Sorry I don't use prism and I don't know the capabilities of your control so my help is going to be limited. If I can find the examples I ran across - Telerik dynamic columns radgridview - keywords may help, I will post the link.
