Robert,
I meant :
-Select grid to edit
-Select individual column
-Select control (typically textbox)
-In PEM sheet - Format put "!"

Also you could modify and use this code a little to make it faster :
lParameters lcOldClass, lcNewClass, lcClassLib, lcApplyTo, lcKeepProperty, lcParams
*
* Quick and dirty builder for grid columns(ix).controls
* gridbuild(lcOldClass, lcNewClass, lcClassLib [,lcApplyTo] [,lcKeepProperty] [,lcParams])
* Author : Cetin Basoz - simple tasks library
* lcOldClass = Class to change ie: header
* lcNewClass = New Class ie: myheader
* lcClassLib = vcx or prg containing definition - if prg extension is required
* lcApplyTo  = Apply to columns list ie: 1,4,5 - all assumed if empty or ignored
* lcKeepProperty - A property to keep as is if any ie: Caption
* lcParams - Params passed to new class if any - ie : lnLeft, lnTop
*
* Sample calls :
* 1)Replace all header class with myheader class (from myheaderset.prg) and keep caption property
* =gridbuild("header","myheader","myheaderset.prg",,"caption")
*
* 2)Replace all textbox class with mytextbox class (from myclasses.vcx)
* =gridbuild("textbox","mytextbox","myclasses")
*
* 3)Replace all textbox class with mytextbox class (from myclasses.vcx) in columns 1,3,5
* gridbuild("textbox","mytextbox","myclasses","1,3,5")
*
* Select one or more grids on form (design mode) and call
*
if type("lcOldClass") # "C" ;
	or type("lcNewClass") # "C" ;
	or type("lcClassLib") # "C"
	or empty("lcOldClass") ;
	or empty("lcNewClass") ;
	or empty("lcClassLib")
	wait window nowait "Required params missing."
	return
endif	

lcApplyTo = iif(type("lcApplyTo")#"C","0",lcApplyTo)
lcKeepProperty = iif(type("lcKeepProperty")="C",lcKeepProperty,"name")
lcParams = iif(type("lcParams")="C",","+lcParams,"")
if ratc(".prg",lcClassLib)>0
	if !upper(lcClassLib)$set("Procedure")
		set proc to (lcClasslib) additive
	endif
else
	if !upper(lcClasslib)$set("classlib")
		set classlib to  (lcClasslib) additive
	endif
endif	
aselobj(oGrids)
for each oGrid in oGrids
	for each oColumn in oGrid.columns
		if lcApplyTo=="0" or inlist(oColumn.columnorder, &lcApplyTo)
			for each oControl in oColumn.controls
				if upper(oControl.class) = upper(lcOldClass)
					lcKeepName = oControl.name
					lcKeepPropValue = oControl.&lcKeepProperty
					oColumn.removeobject(lcKeepName)
					oColumn.addobject(lcKeepName,lcNewClass &lcParams)
					with eval("oColumn."+lcKeepName)
						.&lcKeepProperty = lcKeepPropValue
					endwith
				endif
			endfor
		endif
	endfor
endfor
