# CsvHeader

### Introduction

The CsvHeader class represents a header in a CSV file in the [RuntimeCsvRepresentation](https://github.com/flatredball/FlatRedBallDocs/blob/main/frb/docs/index.php) class. The [RuntimeCsvRepresentation](https://github.com/flatredball/FlatRedBallDocs/blob/main/frb/docs/index.php) class contains an array of CsvHeaders called Headers.

### Header Information

When a [RuntimeCsvRepresentation](https://github.com/flatredball/FlatRedBallDocs/blob/main/frb/docs/index.php) is loaded, it will (by default) contain an array of CsvHeaders. Each CsvHeader represents the first item in a column in a CSV file.

The contents of the cell can be obtained through either the Name or OriginalText properties - they will be initially identical.

By default the IsRequired property will be set to false. Both the IsRequired and Name properties can be modified through the [RuntimeCsvRepresentation's RemoveHeaderWhitespaceAndDetermineIfRequired method](https://github.com/flatredball/FlatRedBallDocs/blob/main/frb/docs/index.php).
