## Description
19+
20+
I want to programmatically scroll a column into view in the DataGrid for MAUI. The `ScrollItemIntoView` method appears to scroll rows into view but does not provide functionality for columns.
21+
22+
This knowledge base article also answers the following questions:
23+
- How can I scroll to a specific column programmatically in MAUI DataGrid?
24+
- Is there a way to scroll columns into view using reflection?
25+
- How do I use the `ScrollColumnIntoView` method in MAUI DataGrid?
26+
27+
## Solution
28+
29+
Use the internal `ScrollColumnIntoView` method via reflection. Below is an example implementation triggered by a button click.
30+
31+
1. Access the column you want to scroll into view from the `Columns` collection.
32+
2. Use reflection to access the internal `ScrollColumnIntoView` method.
33+
3. Invoke the method using the required column as an argument.
34+
35+
```csharp
36+
private void Button_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
37+
{
38+
// Access the desired column; adjust the index as needed.
39+
var column = this.grid.Columns[3];
40+
41+
// Use reflection to get the internal ScrollColumnIntoView method.
42+
MethodInfo getScrollToColumn = this.grid.GetType().GetMethod("ScrollColumnIntoView", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
43+
44+
// Invoke the method to scroll the specified column into view.
45+
getScrollToColumn.Invoke(this.grid, new object[] { column });
46+
}
47+
```
