The DataGridAutoGeneratingColumnEventArgs are used to access properties of the column that is being generated and to access information about the data item that the column is being generated from.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the DataGridAutoGeneratingColumnEventArgs. This example is part of a larger example available in the How to: Customize Auto-Generated Columns in the DataGrid Control topic.

Private Sub dataGrid1_AutoGeneratingColumn(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Controls.DataGridAutoGeneratingColumnEventArgs)
    ' Modify the header of the Name column.
    If e.Column.Header.ToString() = "Name" Then
        e.Column.Header = "Task"
    End If
    '  Replace the DueDate column with a custom template column.
    If e.PropertyName = "DueDate" Then
        ' Create a new template column.
        Dim templateColumn As New DataGridTemplateColumn
        templateColumn.Header = "Due Date"
        templateColumn.CellTemplate = Me.Resources("dueDateCellTemplate")
        templateColumn.CellEditingTemplate = Me.Resources("dueDateCellEditingTemplate")
        templateColumn.SortMemberPath = "DueDate"
        ' ...
        ' Replace the auto-generated column with the templateColumn.
        e.Column = templateColumn

    End If
    ' Cancel AutoGeneration of all boolean columns.
    If e.PropertyType Is GetType(Boolean) Then
        e.Cancel = True
    End If
End Sub
private void dataGrid1_AutoGeneratingColumn(object sender, DataGridAutoGeneratingColumnEventArgs e)
{
    // Modify the header of the Name column.
    if (e.Column.Header.ToString() == "Name")
        e.Column.Header = "Task";
    // Replace the DueDate column with a custom template column.
    if (e.PropertyName == "DueDate")
    {
        // Create a new template column.
        DataGridTemplateColumn templateColumn = new DataGridTemplateColumn();
        templateColumn.Header = "Due Date";
        templateColumn.CellTemplate = (DataTemplate)Resources["dueDateCellTemplate"];
        templateColumn.CellEditingTemplate = (DataTemplate)Resources["dueDateCellEditingTemplate"];
        templateColumn.SortMemberPath = "DueDate";
        // ...
        // Replace the auto-generated column with the templateColumn.
        e.Column = templateColumn;
    }

    // Cancel AutoGeneration of all boolean columns.
    if (e.PropertyType == typeof(bool))
        e.Cancel = true;
}
