Perhaps someone can help me with this one. I have a Grid, and in its Init() I determine rather or not two of the Columns of the Grid are required.

If they are not required, I don't want them to show up in the Grid at all. I have set in the grid.Init() its Grid.Column1.Visible = .F., and its Grid.Column1.Width = 0. However, the Grid still opens up with a blank column. How in this situation can I have the Grid open up without the blank column showing up at all? Is there a better way to drop this column altogether than the way I am doing?

Also, is there a way to "lock" a column so that it can't be resized? or at least it can't be resized so small that the column contents can not be seen?

Thanks for the help in advance - grids are not one of my stronger points.
