Header_Label allows a developer to define text for column headers in a grid or list. This property specifies the text that is to appear at the top of Column iColumn. In data-aware classes, the value of this property is overridden by label values in the DDO when Auto_Label_State is set to True.

Sample

This sample shows how to set the Header_Label for the first 3 columns in a dbGrid or dbList by augmenting the Activating method, which fires the first time the object is activated.
