Simply i have used a String with Multiline Processing as “\n”..

Like you can subsitude the String as follows

String header=first_String_Variable+"\n"+second_String_Variable;

and set grid by using Adapter..

ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, header);
gridHeader.setAdapter(adapter);
