Remarks
Use the ShowHeader property to show or hide the header section of a ButtonFieldBase object. To show the header section, set the ShowHeader property to true
.
Note
Some data-bound controls (such as the GridView control) can show or hide only the entire header section of the control. These data-bound controls do not support the ShowHeader property for an individual button field. To show or hide the entire header section of a data-bound control (if available), use the ShowHeader
property for the control.
The value of this property is stored in view state.
