You mean this code Mike?

 // Header
            Infragistics.Documents.Report.Grid.IGridHeader header = grid.Header;
            header.Height = new Infragistics.Documents.Report.FixedHeight(35);
            header.Repeat = true;

            Infragistics.Documents.Report.Grid.IGridCell cell = header.AddCell();
            cell.ColSpan = 5;
            cell.Alignment.Vertical = Infragistics.Documents.Report.Alignment.Middle;
            cell.Borders = new Infragistics.Documents.Report.Borders(Infragistics.Documents.Graphics.Pens.Black);
            cell.Background = new Infragistics.Documents.Report.Background(new Infragistics.Documents.Graphics.Color(220, 240, 240));

            text = cell.AddText();
            text.Style = normalStyle;
            text.Alignment = Infragistics.Documents.Report.TextAlignment.Center;
            text.AddContent("Grid Header");

            // Footer
            Infragistics.Documents.Report.Grid.IGridFooter footer = grid.Footer;
            footer.Height = new Infragistics.Documents.Report.FixedHeight(35);
            footer.Repeat = true;

            cell = footer.AddCell();
            cell.ColSpan = 5;
            cell.Alignment.Vertical = Infragistics.Documents.Report.Alignment.Middle;
            cell.Borders = new Infragistics.Documents.Report.Borders(Infragistics.Documents.Graphics.Pens.Black);
            cell.Background = new Infragistics.Documents.Report.Background(new Infragistics.Documents.Graphics.Color(220, 220, 240));

            text = cell.AddText();
            text.Style = normalStyle;
            text.Alignment = Infragistics.Documents.Report.TextAlignment.Center;
            text.AddContent("Grid Footer");

Hi Mike,
at the moment,my Pdf export is like this one:

private void pDFToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   var nameFilePdf = String.Empty;

   try
   {
         saveFileDialog1.Filter = "(*.pdf)|*.pdf|All files (*.*)|*.*";
         saveFileDialog1.AddExtension = true;
         saveFileDialog1.DefaultExt = ".pdf";
         saveFileDialog1.ShowDialog();
        
  nameFilePdf = saveFileDialog1.FileName + ".pdf";

         if (saveFileDialog1.FileName != "")
         {
               ultraGridDocumentExporter1.Export(MyUltraGrid, nameFilePdf, GridExportFileFormat.PDF);
         }

  //  catch section....

and I need only to put a simple header - for example the Company name - in the Pdf created.

Could you help me?

Right now you are using the overload of the Export method that takes a file name. That's fine, you can do it that way, also.

What you would do is handle the BeginExport event of the UltraGridDocumentExporter. The event passes you an ISection. You can use the AddText method to add an IText object to the ISection and then use AddContent to add some content to the IText. This all happens before the grid is exported, so your text will appear before the grid.

At the moment, my BeginExport method is this one:

private void ultraGridDocumentExporter1_BeginExport(object sender, BeginExportEventArgs e)
        {
            foreach (UltraGridBand band in e.Layout.Bands)
            {
                switch (band.Index)
                {
                    case 1:
                        band.Hidden = true;
                        break;
                    default:
                        band.Indentation = 0;
                        break;
                }
            }
        }

How can I modify it?

I have put an

public ISection section;

declaration at the beginning of my class (after public partial class Form1 : Form.....)

and then modify the BeginExport like so:

private void ultraGridDocumentExporter1_BeginExport(object sender, BeginExportEventArgs e)
{
         
    IText text = section.AddText();
    text.AddContent("My UltraGrid Header");
           
    foreach (UltraGridBand band in e.Layout.Bands)
    {
         switch (band.Index)
         {
              case 1:
                  band.Hidden = true;
                  break;
              default:
                  band.Indentation = 0;
                  break;
         }
    }
}

In this moment I can't test it (I'm out of office, with not database).

Is it sufficent?

Luigi

Hi Luigi,

You don't need to declare a section variable. You want your text to be included in the same section the grid is being exporting into. So just use "e.Section".
