DataGridColumnStyles noshow

[BCrowe]

I am using a datareader to populate a table to fill a datagrid but when I attempt to modify the datagridcolumnstyles for my datagrid I find that there are none. Below are some pertinent code snips...maybe someone can point out where I am screwing up. The data is all there and if I don't try and address the columnstyles then it displays correctly.

With m_dtInventory.Columns
.Add(New DataColumn("InventoryGUID", GetType(Guid)))
.Add(New DataColumn("Serial", GetType(String)))
.Add(New DataColumn("Category", GetType(String)))
.Add(New DataColumn("Owner", GetType(String)))
.Add(New DataColumn("Vendor", GetType(String)))
.Add(New DataColumn("Location", GetType(String)))
End With


...

Dim dgtsInventory As New DataGridTableStyle(True)
dgtsInventory.MappingName = "Inventory"

With dgInventory
.DataSource = m_dtInventory
.TableStyles.Add(dgtsInventory)
With .TableStyles("Inventory&quot
.GridColumnStyles(0).Width = 0
End With
End With

Any help would be appreciated,

A little clarification on my post.

As I step to the line:

.GridColumnStyles(0).Width = 0

I get an out of range error because there are no gridcolumnstyles defined. Shouldn't they be created automatically on assigning the datasource?

In case anyone cares, I figured out what the problem was. GridColumnStyles are not created when a datatable is set as the datasource but are when a dataview is. So all that was necessary was a single line of code to assign the datatable to a dataview and use the dataview as the datasource for the datagrid.
