I want to be able to hide the header at the top of each grid column in a WPF ListView.

This is the XAML for my ListView:

   <Window x:Class="ListViewTest.Test0.ListViewTest"
   xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
   xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
   Title="Empty ListView Grid" Height="216" Width="435" FlowDirection="LeftToRight" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" Grid.IsSharedSizeScope="False">
    <Window.Resources>
        <XmlDataProvider x:Key="CustomersDS" Source="C:\data.xml"/>
    </Window.Resources>


    <ListView Margin="0,0,0,50" ItemTemplate="{DynamicResource CustomerTemplate}" ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource CustomersDS}, XPath=/Customers/Customer}">
        <ListView.View>
            <GridView>
                <GridViewColumn  DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding XPath=Code}"/>
                <GridViewColumn  DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding XPath=Name}"/>
                <GridViewColumn  DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding XPath=Country}"/>
            </GridView>
        </ListView.View>
    </ListView>


</Window>

The data I am binding this to is:

 <Customers>
  <Customer>
 <Code>1234</Code>
 <Name>EPI</Name>
 <Country>Sesame Street</Country>
  </Customer>
  <Customer>
 <Code>3234</Code>
 <Name>Paul</Name>
 <Country>United Kingdom</Country>
  </Customer>
 <Customer>
 <Code>3344</Code>
 <Name>Juan</Name>
 <Country>Spain</Country>
  </Customer>
 <Customer>
 <Code>4321</Code>
 <Name>Dodo</Name>
 <Country>Mars</Country>
  </Customer>
</Customers>

Define a Style like so

<Window.Resources>
    ....
    <Style x:Key="myHeaderStyle" TargetType="{x:Type GridViewColumnHeader}">
        <Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed" />
    </Style>
</Window.Resources>

Apply it like so

<GridView ColumnHeaderContainerStyle="{StaticResource myHeaderStyle}">
    ....
</GridView>
