Suppose i need to write a control that uses the DataGrid control. Then in

a typical senario i have:



protected DataGrid Grid;

.

.

.

protected override void CreateChildControls() {				



                        Grid.ID = "MyGrid";

			Grid.Width = gridWidth;

			Grid.BackColor = Color.FromName("#ccccff");

			Grid.BorderColor = Color.Black;

			Grid.ShowFooter = false;

			Grid.CellPadding = 3;

			Grid.CellSpacing = 0;

			Grid.Font.Name = "Verdana";	

			Grid.Font.Size = 8;

			Grid.HeaderStyle.BackColor = Color.FromName("#aaaadd");

			Grid.HeaderStyle.Font.Bold = true;

			Grid.AutoGenerateColumns = false;

			Grid.SelectedItemStyle.BackColor = Color.LightCyan;

			Grid.SelectedItemStyle.Font.Bold = true;



			Grid.AllowPaging = true;		Grid.PageSize = gridPageSize;

			Grid.PagerStyle.BackColor = Color.FromName("#aaaadd");

			Grid.PagerStyle.HorizontalAlign = HorizontalAlign.Right;

.

.

.



Now, before databinding i want to specify some columns. Adding

BoundColumns seems easy. I specify a function:



public BoundColumn AddBoundColumn(String strHeaderText, String

strDataField, int iWidth, bool bReadOnly) {



			BoundColumn bc = new BoundColumn();



			bc.HeaderText = strHeaderText;

			bc.DataField = strDataField;

			bc.HeaderStyle.Width = iWidth;

			bc.ReadOnly = bReadOnly;



			return bc;

		}



and i call it somehow like:



Grid.Columns.Add(AddBoundColumn(string1"].ToString(), string2.ToString(),

100, true));



The problem is that there doesn 't seem to be a way to create a similar

function to add a TemplateColumn in c# code so i can have programmatic

access to ItemTemplate and EditItemTemplate.



can anyone help me?
