Answer 1

Here is an example of doing this using an asp GridView:

// Create new DataTable.
DataTable dt = new DataTable();

// Total count of columns.
int colCount = 3;

// Add 3 columns.
for (int i = 0; i < colCount; i++)
{
    dt.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("col" + i.ToString()));
}

// Add data to the datatable.
dt.Rows.Add(new object[] { "Empname", "Earnngs", "Amount" });
dt.Rows.Add(new object[] { "Austin", "Earnngs", "Amount" });
dt.Rows.Add(new object[] { "Austin", "df", "Amount" });
dt.Rows.Add(new object[] { "sdfsdf", "dsfdf", "df" });
dt.Rows.Add(new object[] { "Empdsfsdfname", "Earnngs", "df" });

// Loop through each column in the DataTable and set the column name to the data in the first row of data.
foreach (DataColumn dc in dt.Columns)
{
    dc.ColumnName = dt.Rows[0][dc].ToString();
}

// Set the datasource of the grid.
this.GridView1.DataSource = dt;

// Bind the data to the grid.
this.GridView1.DataBind();
