this topic was covered in detail a few weeks ago... I don't remember the topic to search for but I'll give you the _extremely_ short version.
You cannot specify a default custom class for members of a grid.
What you _can_ do is write code in the init method of your grid class looping through the column and using REMOVEOBJECT and ADDOBJECT to replace all the members with your custom classes.

Let me know if you can't find the psat threads on this subject (keyword 'header' comes to mind...) or if you need more details on the implementation of this concept...
