Thanks Guys, I think I am explaining this a bit wrong though. What I am doing is binding a datagrid to a strongly typed collection. The collection holds a class to has [Bindable] on some of its props. What I would like though is for the grid to auto generate the columns in a certain order, like how a datatable, dataview, etc. is. I guess what I am saying is how does the datagrid auto generate the column orders(Ordinal)? And how can I change this?

You don't. The order of the columns in the model (DataView) and the order of the columns in the view (your control) do not need to correlate at all. Behavior like that of the DataGrid control is probably the most desirable, which is: If there are no UI columns explicitly configured (design time or run time), the UI columns are auto-generated from the columns found in the bound DataView.
