Dim h_Column As New HyperLinkField
h_Column = New HyperLinkField

h_Column = New HyperLinkField

I found the answer.
i needed to define my fields an array then assign the field value and it works
Dim fields() As String = {"Supplier_Score_Card"}
h_Column = New HyperLinkField
h_Column.DataTextField = COLName
h_Column.HeaderText = COLName
h_Column.DataNavigateUrlFields = fields
h_Column.DataNavigateUrlFormatString = "supplier_OTD_Details.aspx?ven={0}&rpttype=NCR&datev=" & currDate
h_Column.NavigateUrl = "Supplier_NCR_Details.aspx?ven={0}&rpttype=NCR&date=" & currDate
h_Column.Target = "_new"
gv1.Columns.Add(h_Column)
