[RESOLVED] Populating a Datafield Grid

[.paul.]

i was assuming you'd use a text file with a header row as the first row containing the text you want displayed as your dgv column headers. if you just want standard columnheaders:

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        Dim lines() As String = IO.File.ReadAllLines("I:\test.txt")
        Dim dt As New DataTable
        
        For x as integer = 1 to lines(0).split(cchar(vbtab)).length
            dt.Columns.Add("Column" & x.tostring)
        Next
        For x As Integer = 0 To lines.GetUpperBound(0)
            Dim dr As DataRow = dt.NewRow
            dr.ItemArray = lines(x).Split(cchar(vbtab))
            dt.Rows.Add(dr)
        Next
                
        DataGridView1.DataSource = dt
 
    End Sub
End Class
