Property Value

Type	Description
AutoGenerateColumnsMode	A value that specifies the way columns are generated.

Available values:

Name	Description
Auto	Creates columns for all fields of a data source if the grid does not contain any columns.
Add	Creates columns for all fields of a data source, preserving the columns the grid already contains.
Replace	Creates columns for all fields of a data source, removing columns the grid already contains.
None	Doesn’t create columns.

Remarks

Set the AutoGenerateColumnsMode property to None to prevent columns from being automatically created. If you need to cancel the generation of an individual column, use the DataGridView.AutoGeneratingColumn event. This event also allows you to customize an auto-generated column at the time it is created.
