In order to change the order of columns, just set the DisplayIndex property of the DataGridView to the desired value. Remember that the index is zero based.
C#


private void btnReorder_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
dgv.Columns["CustomerID"].DisplayIndex = 5;
dgv.Columns["OrderID"].DisplayIndex = 3;
dgv.Columns["EmployeeID"].DisplayIndex = 1;
dgv.Columns["OrderDate"].DisplayIndex = 2;
dgv.Columns["Freight"].DisplayIndex = 6;
dgv.Columns["ShipCountry"].DisplayIndex = 0;
dgv.Columns["ShipName"].DisplayIndex = 4;
}

VB.NET


Private Sub btnReorder_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
dgv.Columns("CustomerID").DisplayIndex = 5
dgv.Columns("OrderID").DisplayIndex = 3
dgv.Columns("EmployeeID").DisplayIndex = 1
dgv.Columns("OrderDate").DisplayIndex = 2
dgv.Columns("Freight").DisplayIndex = 6
dgv.Columns("ShipCountry").DisplayIndex = 0
dgv.Columns("ShipName").DisplayIndex = 4
End Sub
