Rich,

I talked with our Engineering department, and what you're doing is really the best way to go about doing it.

I don't doubt for a second that your code works, Torrey.  I appreciate you looking at this issue.  I know the grid is very complicated and I am using a ton of its features in my app.

Thanks

Rich

That's what I was trying to tell Torrey in my previous post.  I have to drill down through the groups to get to the columns and then loop through all the columns in the group and check if they are visible.  I have some grids with quite a few column in them and was looking for a quick and dirty way to get the visible columns.  My code is doing what you suggest.  I was just trying to find a more efficient way.

Thanks!

Hello Rehemann,

The VisibleHeaders property returns the topmost level of headers.  So, if you have the columns in groups, it will return the visible group headers.  You can do something like the following to get the columns, but it will get some columns that might not be visible.  I'm assuming that's not what you want, but I might be wrong.

			VisibleHeadersCollection vhc = ultraGrid1.ActiveColScrollRegion.VisibleHeaders;
			foreach (VisibleHeader vh in vhc)
			{
				if (vh.Header is GroupHeader)
				{
					GroupHeader gh = vh.Header as GroupHeader;
					foreach (UltraGridColumn ugc in gh.Group.Columns)
					{
						Debug.WriteLine(ugc.Header.Caption);
					}
				}
			}
