Uses: VS 2005, C#, DataGridView, WinForms;
I need to color the font/background of a particular column's Header portion. I see that it can only be done to the entire column list's header instead of a single column. Any help greatly appreciated.

First in your DataGridView you need to set EnableHeadersVisualStyles to false. After you've done that you can set the individual header style on each column.
DataGridViewColumn dataGridViewColumn = dataGridView1.Columns[0];
dataGridViewColumn.HeaderCell.Style.BackColor = Color.Magenta;
dataGridViewColumn.HeaderCell.Style.ForeColor = Color.Yellow;
Do it in this way
DataGridViewTextBoxColumn col = new DataGridViewTextBoxColumn();
{
col.Name = "ColumnName";
col.HeaderText = "HeaderName";
col.DefaultCellStyle.ForeColor = Color.White;
col.HeaderCell.Style.BackColor = Color.Red; //Column Header Color
this.dataGridView1.Columns.Add(col);
}
