}
DataGridView1->Columns->Add(buttons);
}
private void AddButtonColumn()
{
DataGridViewButtonColumn buttons = new DataGridViewButtonColumn();
{
buttons.HeaderText = "Sales";
buttons.Text = "Sales";
buttons.UseColumnTextForButtonValue = true;
buttons.AutoSizeMode =
DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnMode.AllCells;
buttons.FlatStyle = FlatStyle.Standard;
buttons.CellTemplate.Style.BackColor = Color.Honeydew;
buttons.DisplayIndex = 0;
}
DataGridView1.Columns.Add(buttons);
}
Private Sub AddButtonColumn()
Dim buttons As New DataGridViewButtonColumn()
With buttons
.HeaderText = "Sales"
.Text = "Sales"
.UseColumnTextForButtonValue = True
.AutoSizeMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnMode.DisplayedCells
.FlatStyle = FlatStyle.Standard

DataGridView1.Columns.Add(buttons)

Remarks
The FlatStyle property specifies the appearance of the cells in the column. For more information, see the FlatStyle enumeration.
Getting or setting this property gets or sets the FlatStyle property of the object returned by the CellTemplate property. Setting this property also sets the FlatStyle property of every cell in the column and refreshes the column display. To override the specified value for individual cells, set the cell values after you set the column value.
