I hope I state my problem correctly. Kindly please look at the screenclip below :’

I prefer that the first column shown above is not displayed. Is there any design/programmatic way of achieving this?
Thank you!
Edited :
Using this link http://www.andreavb.com/forum/viewtopic_7951.html, I am able to remove the triangle from the selection column
This is using a DataGridView I assume? Just use the visible property for the row headers.
Alternatively, you can set it to false using the Properties window.
