Nadya, I'd recommend at least checking the base class - grids which have been instantiated in a custom fashion may not have the header as the first control in the column's Controls collection. YMMV. The name does not have to be "Header1", either - look at the control's BaseClass property.

You can also use a FOR EACH loop on a collection rather than explicit iteration.
