```
protected void listView_ItemDataBound(object sender, ListViewItemEventArgs e)

Hey Samuel!\
Use Below line of code: -\

```
GridView grdView = (GridView)item.FindControl("gridView");
DataTable dataTable = new DataTable();
dt.Columns.Add("Columnname");
DataRow dataRow = dataTable.NewRow();
dataRow["Columnname"] = "Wellcome";
dataTable.Rows.Add(dataRow);
grdView.DataSource = dataTable;
grdView.DataBind();
```
