SQL QUERY CHALLENGING

Question

I have two tables. table1 and table2.

table 1 has the following fields

CNO[Primarykey],Cname,Question,Date

table 2 has follwoing fields

CNO[Foreign key],SOQ.

when i write query select SOQ from table 2 where CNO = 1336

i get output as

101

102

103

for a different CNO the o/p varies. the o/p is nopt always 3 rows

. My question is

I have a datagridview in windows forms. the header of that grid should be as follows

CNO Cname Question 101 102 103

So the output of table 2 should be included as header for datagrid. how should i write the query

Dont worry about the data in the cells below 101 102 103. they will be blank for ever.

Thanks

For Sample i have Created Table With One Column no ---- 1 2 3 4 5 6 Now if i want to Show No column and another Blank Columns With name That is Values in No Column like Below Screen Shot Here i have created 2 function The ShowSimpleData() Function Select the Data From Database and Simply Show it as it is The Second Function Reads the Perticuler Values from Database and Then Make Columns and Add it to DataGridView Note : this Can Also Be Done With Stored Procedure that will Build the Select Query on the Fly by Programming Logic With Null Values but it is Much More Difficult than this one private void Form1_Load(object sender EventArgs e) { ShowSimpleData(); AddExtraColumns(); } public void ShowSimpleData() { SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(@Data Source=.\SQlEXPRESS;AttachDbFileName=|DataDirectory|\Database1.mdf;Integrated Security=true;User Instance=true); con.Open(); SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand(select * from t1 con); SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(comm); DataSet ds = new DataSet(); da.Fill(ds VData); dataGridView1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0]; con.Close(); } public void AddExtraColumns() { SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(@Data Source=.\SQlEXPRESS;AttachDbFileName=|DataDirectory|\Database1.mdf;Integrated Security=true;User Instance=true); con.Open(); SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand(select * from t1 con); SqlDataReader reader = comm.ExecuteReader(); while (reader.Read()) { DataGridViewCell c1 = new DataGridViewTextBoxCell(); DataGridViewColumn col1 = new DataGridViewColumn(c1); col1.HeaderText = reader[no].ToString(); dataGridView1.Columns.Add(col1); } con.Close(); } Happy Coding :)

Set Display Index While Adding Columns in Code Like Below to Change Their Order DataGridViewCell cell1 = new DataGridViewTextBoxCell(); DataGridViewColumn c1 = new DataGridViewColumn(cell1); c1.DisplayIndex = i + 2; c1.HeaderText = i.ToString(); dataGridView1.Columns.Add(c1); Or Use While Adding Column to DataGridView dataGridView1.Columns.Insert( c1); Happy Coding :)

Kirtan The extra columns that are added are displaying as added at the end of existing columns which is perfect but the extra columns - column index is showing as 012 instead of 456....
