Gridview Header Question

[needin4mation]

Hi, I have a gridview with products in it. But each product is the
same brand. So, say it is electronics:

sony tv
sony radio
sony music
.....

I only want to print out sony once and preferably at the top of the
table somewhere. So that I would end up with

sony
-------
radio
tv
music

Does anyone know how to do that? Thanks for any help.

Well you will need to do the following

1.) Hide the column with your brands in lets call it Products for example.
2.) Add a new column to your datatable before you bind it. And add an
expression something similar
to this ( Untested, but it should work )

calcCol.Expression = "Products.Replace("sony ","")
