Deleting dataGrid columns via code

[Peter Haworth]

Hi Skip,
Get hold of the dgProps["columns"] property of your datagrid.  It is a line
delimited list of the columns in the order they appear so you can delete
the lines corresponding to the columns you want to delete, then set that
property.

Presumably you have a way to get the columns back again!
