You are correct. I am autogenerating the columns and your code worked: // Set the 3rd header text to right alignment. DataGridItem dgiHeader = (DataGridItem)grdAllLoans.Controls[0].Controls[0]; TableCell tc = dgiHeader.Cells[2]; tc.CssClass = "WhiteHeaderTextRightAligned"; Thanks for the help guys! Mark

You must be autogenerating your columns in the grid, in which case the columns collection is empty, and you need to get a little trickier. You can still access the style in the code behind, it just takes some goofiness. First you need to access the header DataGridItem DataGridItem dgiHeader = (DataGridItem)dg.Controls[0].Controls[1]; //Note that the datagrid object has one child control of the type DataGridTable, the items are children of this and not the datagrid directly, hence the .Controls[0] //If you are not using a pager, you might need to use (DataGridItem)dg.Controls[0].Controls[0]; to access the header item, just check the ItemType property Then you access the cell you want to change and set the style TableCell tc =dgiHeader.Cells[0]; tc.CssClass = "SomeCSS"; On 12/16/05, Mark E <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It's being called at the end of the Page_load method.
