Hi all,
I can't manage to color the cell in the column header of a datagridview:
I understand from the documentation that something like this should work,
but it doesn't work...

C#

DataGridView1.TopLeftHeaderCell.Style.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue;

Thanks,

Your code is fine but I think there may be issue in other code-block(You didn't include the full code), check these
