DataGrid and colspan Question

[needin4mation]

Hi I am trying to had a colspan to my footer.

I have my DataGrid populating as normal. I then have a footer utilzed
for the insert of new data.

My DataGrid has an Edit Column and a Delete Column.
My footer has an "Insert" column.

I can line everything up right so that Insert fits under Edit, but
there is then an extra cell that is blank in my footer row. This is
because of my delete button.

I tried to do the following:

if (e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Footer)
{
e.Item.Cells[6].ColumnSpan=2;
}

This works, almost, except that when it renders it then puts an extra
header and cell on the end of the DataGrid. I can't get rid of it.
All I am trying to do is have my "Insert" button span two columns,
centered underneath my edit and delete buttons.

Thank you for any help.

You need to hide your other columns and set their .visible property to
false.
