Solution

  • First, assign your column id:

    {name: 'Roll Number', id: 'rollNum', field: 'roll', width: 'auto', defaultValue: ""},

    If you are trying to hide or show the column the solution is:

    // to hide column with id="rollNum"
grid.styleColumn("rollNum", "display: none;");

// to show it
grid.styleColumn("rollNum", "display: table-cell;");
