Type Description
GridColumn

A GridColumn object representing the new column.

#Remarks

Use the Add method to add a new column with default settings to the end of the collection. Note that the new column has no caption, is not bound to any data source field and has other settings cleared. So, you need to customize the method’s return object to provide proper column settings.

To make the column visible, use the GridColumn.VisibleIndex property.
