Change DataGrid column header text

Question

I have a list of a specific class type Person and I want to make a DataGrid with it.

private void DataGrid_Loaded(object sender, Ro         


        

Answer 1

Here the Right way to do it :

First Define an ObservableCollection in the codebehind that will hold a list of persons

Second Bind that list to the DataGrid ItemSource and Bind its properties

You can change what name to display on each column by simply disabling the AutoGenerateColumns and setting their names by your self

here the full code

and the code behind :

public class Person
{
    public String FName { get; set; }   
    public String LName { get; set; }   

}
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
    public ObservableCollection ListPersons { get; set; }
    public MainWindow()
    {
        ListPersons=new ObservableCollection()
        {
            new Person()
            {
                FName = "FName1",
                LName = "LName1"
            },
             new Person()
            {
                FName = "FName2",
                LName = "LName2"
            }

        };
        this.DataContext = this;

    }


}
