I want to add a column with the row retrieved from the a table in SQL.
The column to be added will be known when the user select a checkbox from a checkbox list which has all the columns from that table in SQL.

What I am doing is the following, but is not working properly:

private void LoadData()
{
    OpenConn();
    string MyTable = "SELECT * FROM [MyTable]";
    SqlDataAdapter dtadpt = new SqlDataAdapter(MyTable, Connection.destConn);
    dtadpt.Fill(Mydt);
    dtadpt.Dispose();
    CloseConn();
}

private void ShowDailyTable()
{
         BoundField colName = new BoundField();
         int index = 0;

         if (CheckBoxList1.SelectedValue.ToString() == "Bar")
         {
             colName.DataField = "Bar";
             index = Mydt.Columns["Bar"].Ordinal;
             colName.HeaderText = Mydt.Rows[0][index].ToString();
             Menu1.Columns.Add(colName);
         }
         Menu1.DataSource = Mydt;
         Menu1.DataBind();
}

Did You try to add to a DataSet then insert the DataSet into DataTable?

Solution 2

This is what I Use It's For SQLite but basically the same concept.

C#

public class Form1 : Form
       {
		private DataGrid Grid;	
		private SQLiteConnection sql_con;
		private SQLiteCommand sql_cmd;
		private SQLiteDataAdapter DB;
		private DataSet DS = new DataSet();
		private DataTable DT = new DataTable();
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
	{
		LoadData();
	}
        private void LoadData()
	{
		SetConnection(); 
		sql_con.Open();
		sql_cmd = sql_con.CreateCommand();
		string CommandText = "select Url, Url from  rss";
		DB = new SQLiteDataAdapter(CommandText,sql_con);
                DS.Reset();
		DB.Fill(DS);            
		DT= DS.Tables[0];
		Grid.DataSource = DT;
		sql_con.Close();            
	}
        private void SetConnection()
        {
		sql_con = new SQLiteConnection("Data                           
		Source=Rss.db;Version=3;New=False;Compress=True;");
        }
