Newbie : Gridview question

Hi all,
I have a gridview on my page and templatecolumns defined in it. I also have
a couple of databound columns. The datatable being bound to the gridview
contains a column (defined as a datacolumn so as to get the value) and in
the ItemDataBound I can access this value but only when the databound
column's visibility is set to true. If I hide the visibility at design-time
I can't get access to the value at run-time. I don't want to show this
column.
How do I go about geting the value so as to do someting with it but not show
the databound column?
Regards
John.Hi John,
You can put these values in DataKeyNames, and retrieve by
.DataKeys[row_index].Values[col_index]

Newbie Grid Question

Let me explain my situation ...
I have a grid with databound columns, which are filled at run time. I
need to add an onlick event to the link button header that will fire a
vb.net sub procedure. This sub procedure will need to be passed the
data field name which is used to fill the column clicked. The data
fields and link button header names are all determined and filled at
run time.
I want to add the onclick event by calling the attributes.add method
when the column is created. My question is, where do I put this
attributes.add method where I will have access to the data field
name? I dont want to do it on the row created event and I dont think
i have access to the columns in the grid databound event. Can anyone
point me in the right direction? I think I may be doing this
incorrectly.
