Hiding columns in a datagrid

[robert201]

Hello

VS 2003.

I am trying to hide some columns in a datagrid. The datagrid is bound to a typed dataset data source.

This is the code I have used to set the column width to zero. However, as there are many columns to hide I get left with a bold black line where the column should have been. So the customer doesn't want to see this. This is the code I used, just wondering is there a better way to do this.

Many thanks,

Steve

//GridTableStylesCollection grdTblSty = new GridTableStylesCollection();
                DataGridTableStyle tblStyle = new DataGridTableStyle();
                tblStyle.MappingName = "OrderDetail";
                grdBeverages.TableStyles.Add(tblStyle);

                grdBeverages.DataSource = DS.OrderDetail.DefaultView;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["OrderDetailID"].Width = 0;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["BeverageID"].Width = 0;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["Beverage"].Width = 50;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["BeverageQty"].Width = 40;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["BeverageQty"].HeaderText = "Qty";
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["BeverageCost"].Width = 40;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["BeverageCost"].HeaderText = "Cost";
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["StarterID"].Width = 0;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["Starter"].Width = 0;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["StarterQty"].Width = 0;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["StarterCost"].Width = 0;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["MaincourseID"].Width = 0;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["Maincourse"].Width = 0;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["MaincourseQty"].Width = 0;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["MaincourseCost"].Width = 0;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["TotalCost"].Width = 40;
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["totalCost"].HeaderText = "Cost";
                grdBeverages.TableStyles["OrderDetail"].GridColumnStyles["OrderID"].Width = 0;

Is there a .Visible property on the gridview.Columns object?
