Formatting RSS Columns in a datagrid

[BukHix]

I have an ASP.Net news reader where I syndicate news items from different sites. In my current app I am just streaming the XML and using a XSL file to format the look of the feed.

As an alternative I want to pull the RSS files and parse them with a datagrid like this. The problem I am having is that I don't know how to remove columns I don't want in the grid specificaly the redundant title and the channel id.

Here is the datagrid (without formatting):

<asp:DataGrid id="rss" runat="server">
 <Columns>
   <asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="New Items">
     <ItemTemplate>
      <a href="<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "link")%>"> 
      <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "title") %></a> 
     </ItemTemplate>
   </asp:TemplateColumn>
 </Columns>
</asp:DataGrid>

Any ideas?

I did a project similar to that. What I did was use a DataList instead of DataGrid. I then put 2 labels and a hyperlink control in the DataList, then binded those controls to the columns in the Rss Feeds that I wanted to display.

Try including this:
AutoGenerateColumns="False"

Example:
<asp:DataGrid id="rss" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False">
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="New Items">
<ItemTemplate>
<a href="<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "link")%>">
<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "title") %></a>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
</Columns>
</asp:DataGrid>

Thanks to both of you for answering my question. Hellswraith that worked perfectly and even worked out a little better then I imagined.

The AutoGenerateColumns always messes me up until I go turn it to false. Sometimes my result set contains a lot more columns than what I want displayed, so I always turn it off and specify the columns that I want shown.

Glad to hear that it works. Good luck.
