From a Form Designer add new DataGridViewTextBoxColumn and move it to top most position or at whatever position you would like to display this column at, then in properties of this DataGridViewTextBoxColumn set DataPropertyName to the name of your column, which from your code, i can see that is Title, that’s it, compile, run and it should display the text column before button columns… I have attached a screenshot for you, I hope it will solve your problem…
