   myGrid.Columns.CopyTo ( myArray, 0 );
   myLabel.Text = "The heading text for the items in the array are: <p>";

   foreach ( DataGridColumn column in myArray ) {
      myLabel.Text += column.HeaderText + "<br>";
   }
}

Sub copyTo ( src As Object, e As EventArgs )
   Dim myArray ( 3 ) As DataGridColumn
   myGrid.Columns.CopyTo ( myArray, 0 )
   myLabel.Text = "The heading text for the items in the array are: " & "<p>"
   Dim column As DataGridColumn
   For Each column In myArray
      myLabel.Text &= column.HeaderText & "<br>"
   Next column 
End Sub
