Hi,

You can do it like this

Dim intCells As Int16
        For intCells = 0 To GridView1.HeaderRow.Cells.Count - 1
            If GridView1.HeaderRow.Cells(intCells).Text.IndexOf("*") > -1 Then
                GridView1.HeaderRow.Cells(intCells).BackColor = Drawing.Color.Yellow
            End If
        Next

Open in new window

I got an error : cells >>> cannot be used like a method

Int16 intCells = default(Int16);
for (intCells = 0; intCells <= GridView1.HeaderRow.Cells.Count - 1; intCells++) {
      if (GridView1.HeaderRow.Cells(intCells).Text.IndexOf("*") > -1) { <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<this line>>>>>>>>>>>>>
            GridView1.HeaderRow.Cells(intCells).BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Yellow;
      }
}
