extra datagrid header...

[saleek]

I was wondering if there is a way I can add an extra header to a datagrid?

I found this solution on the internet - but it seems quite old and didn't
work for me.

[url]http://www.dotnet247.com/247reference/msgs/13/69744.aspx[/url]

It recommends the following:

Private Sub DataGrid1_PreRender(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles DataGrid1.PreRender
Dim dgitem As New DataGridItem(0, 0, ListItemType.Header)
Dim mycell As New TableCell
mycell.ColumnSpan = 1 'Set it to the colspan that you want
mycell.Text = "PRESS RADIO TV"
dgitem.Cells.Add(mycell)
DataGrid1.Controls(0).Controls.AddAt(0, dgitem)
End Sub

But I get an error:

Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. Parameter name:
index

I appreicate your help,
