Question

How do I hide a particular column in Asp Repeater ? I want to hide POwner in this case !

<ItemTemplate>
    <tr>
        <td>
            <%#Eval("Priority") %>
        </td>
        <td>
            <%#Eval("ProjectName") %>
        </td>
        <td>
            <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("POwner") %>'></asp:Label>
    </tr>
</ItemTemplate>

Adding this in code behind gives an error :s

public void Repeater1_ItemDatabound(Object Sender, RepeaterItemEventArgs e)
{
    Repeater a =(Repeater)e.Item.FindControl("Label1");
    a.Visible = false;
}

Answer 1

Label1 is a Label control and not Repeater, that’s why you’re getting an error

You also need to add an if condition so you only get the Label1 for items and not for header or footer.

Try with this

if (e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Item || 
    e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.AlternatingItem)
{
    Label label = (Label)e.Item.FindControl("Label1");
    label.Visible = false;
}
