DataGridView HeaderCell

[Guest]

I can't seem to set the color of a DataGridView HeaderCell. I'm executing
the following code in the WinForm's Load event:
DataGridView1.Columns.Add("test1", "test1")
DataGridView1.Columns(0).HeaderCell.Style.ForeColor = Color.IndianRed
The code does indeed set the property, and I can check the property in the
debugger, but the color of the text doesn't change.

Yet, I have done this previously, and it has worked. I'm at a loss to
explain it. Anyone else having the same problem?

Thanks,
Tom Costanza

Hi,
There is something called ContentForeground also.Find below a link which
discusses how to apply custom paint to datagridview column headers.
