You should use the dgProps["columns"] property to do that.

Not too certain about others, but why does the data grid not automatically do it?

The scenario that came to mind when I was deciding whether or not to automatically create columns when passing in headers as the first key:

Application has a table and allows user to select a text file to import. The text file has some additional columns besides those being defined in the table. As a developer do you want those extra columns to automatically be displayed in the table?

Maybe, maybe not. It is simple enough to create the columns yourself if you do and this way there are no unintended consequences in your shipping application.

It is true that setting the dgText without providing column headers will create columns for you but really that was only done so that a developer using a table for the first time could enter some data in the property inspector and see it appear in the data grid.
