#Property Value

Type Description
GridColumnCollection

A collection of the GridControl‘s columns.

#Remarks

The GridControl stores its columns in the Columns collection. This collection’s methods allow you to add new and remove existing columns. The GridColumn objects are individual columns. You can access columns by a field name (ColumnBase.FieldName) or an index.

<dxg:GridControl.Columns>
    <dxg:GridColumn FieldName="Full Name"/>
    <dxg:GridColumn FieldName="Birth Date"/>
</dxg:GridControl.Columns> 

The Table View displays Columns collection’s items as columns. The Card View — as card fields.

Use the GridViewBase.VisibleColumns property to access only visible columns (the BaseColumn.Visible property value is true).
