Am I correct? Is there any way around this so all of my grid columns are "Arial 8 bold"?

I'm going to stick with Barbara on this one because if you use the .AddColumn() method (or set the .ColumnCount property), you cannot add any code to thinks like the .Click() method of the header which I do use. My master grid does have more than 10 columns, but it also contains code in the Headers.
