Rick,
>Just because they are default properties doesnt mean that the framework doesnt have a problem. I'm not saying that there is a problem with the framework, but since I'm using the latest version 1.4.1, I'm considering the possibility that the install for 1.4.1 might have a problem.
True, but I think dropping an "out-of-the-box" DataGrid on your form and trying that will help establish what's up.
