        PropertyDescriptorCollection myPropertyDescriptorCollection = this.BindingContext
           [myDataSet, "Customers.custToOrders"].GetItemProperties();

        // Create a formatted column using a PropertyDescriptor.

        csOrderAmount.HeaderText = "Total";
        csOrderAmount.Width = 100;

        // Add the DataGridTableStyle instances to GridTableStylesCollection.
        myDataGrid.TableStyles.Add(myDataGridTableStyle1);              
     }          
     private void ColumnHeadersVisibleChanged_Handler(object sender,

     }      
     private void btnheader_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
     {
        if (myDataGridTableStyle1.ColumnHeadersVisible)
        {            
           myDataGridTableStyle1.ColumnHeadersVisible = false;
