GridView Row Height

I have a gridview and a style defined below. The gridview is bound to a dataset dynamically. Although I have set .gridstyle in GridView, the grid row height is still changable, because some columns contains multpiple words and the worlds can be displayed one word a line. This gridview is only for displaying and without add/edit/delete functionalities.

How can I fix the height of each row? Where should I put .gridstyle to fix the cell height?

<style type="text/css">

.gridstyle { height: 20px; }

</style>

<asp:GridView ID="GridView2" runat="server" BackColor="#FFFFFF" CssClass ="gridstyle"
ForeColor="#5078B3" BorderStyle="Solid" BorderColor="#5078B3" >
<headerstyle backcolor="#BF88FE" forecolor="#5078B3"/>
<footerstyle backcolor="#BF88FE" forecolor="#3A5FCD"/>
<PagerStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" />
<AlternatingRowStyle BackColor="#F0F0F0" />
</asp:GridView>

You can try

<asp:GridView ID="GridView2" runat="server" BackColor="#FFFFFF" CssClass ="gridstyle"
ForeColor="#5078B3" BorderStyle="Solid" BorderColor="#5078B3" >
<RowStyle Height="20px" Wrap="false" />
<headerstyle backcolor="#BF88FE" forecolor="#5078B3"/>
<footerstyle backcolor="#BF88FE" forecolor="#3A5FCD"/>
<PagerStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" />
<AlternatingRowStyle BackColor="#F0F0F0" />
</asp:GridView>

Use CssClass to call css:
<asp:GridView ID="GridView2" runat="server" BackColor="#FFFFFF" CssClass ="gridstyle"
ForeColor="#5078B3" BorderStyle="Solid" BorderColor="#5078B3" >
<RowStyle CssClass="gridstyle" />
<headerstyle backcolor="#BF88FE" forecolor="#5078B3"/>
<footerstyle backcolor="#BF88FE" forecolor="#3A5FCD"/>
<PagerStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" />
<AlternatingRowStyle BackColor="#F0F0F0" />
</asp:GridView>

I tried <RowStyle Height="20px" Wrap="false" /> , it's not working. Any other ways?

Yes, it's in head section and it's unique. Most rows are fine, except rows having multiple words in a cell shows higher size, as the multiple words take two or three lines.
