SUMMARY
Page 608 of the Visual Basic 4.x Programmers Guide in the Formatting section indicates that:

"Each column of the DBGrid control has its own font, border, word-wrap, color, and other attributes that can be set without regard to other columns."

This is an error in the documentation.



MORE INFORMATION
None of the explicitly mentioned properties can be set on a per-column basis. The only properties of the DBGrid that can be set on a per-column basis can be determined as follows:


 * 1) Right-click the DBGrid.
 * 2) Select Properties.
 * 3) On the property sheet, select Columns.
