Namespace: DevExpress.XtraGrid.Columns

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraGrid.v18.2.dll

public int ColumnHandle { get; set; }

VB.NET

<Browsable(False)>
Public Property ColumnHandle As Integer

Property Value

Type	Description
Int32	An integer value specifying the bound data field’s zero-based index.

Remarks

Read the ColumnHandle property value to obtain the bound column’s index. Assign a value to this property to bind the column to a data field. If the assigned value is negative or exceeds the last available index, the assignment has no effect.

Note: a more convenient data binding mechanism is to use the GridColumn.FieldName property. This property allows you to specify the column’s bound field by its name.
