Setting Column appearance basestyle

[Paulo Cristini]

Hello,

I''m trying to set the basestyle of a column as per the below code. However when I compile and run this the base style is not applied to the columns. However if I setup a static column and basestyle at design time and apply the basestyle to the column within the designer everything works as intended.
I''d like to avoid creating the columns at design time

private void initGrid(DataSet imDS)
{
this.ggc.BeginUpdate();

GridTableBaseStyle gtbs = new GridTableBaseStyle("Money");
gtbs.Name = "Money";
gtbs.StyleInfo.AllowEnter = true;
gtbs.StyleInfo.AutoSize = false;

gtbs.StyleInfo.CellType = "Currency";
gtbs.StyleInfo.CurrencyEdit.NullString = "99"; //Just to see if its working
gtbs.StyleInfo.CurrencyEdit.CurrencySymbol = "$";
this.ggc.BaseStyles.Add (gtbs);

this.ggc.DataSource = imDS;
this.ggc.DataMember = Constants.DATA_TABLE;

this.ggc.TableDescriptor.Columns["DOLLARS"].Appearance.AnyRecordFieldCell.BaseStyle = "Money";

this.ggc.EndUpdate(true);
}


Can you please give me some feedback as to whether I''m missing a step? Or if I need to take a different approach to this?

Thank you,
Paulo

Something I''ve found interesting is that if I do the following it does work (but almost defeats the purpose of what I was trying to do, because I was looking to reduce duplicated code)


this.ggc.TableDescriptor.Columns["DOLLARS"].Appearance.AnyRecordFieldCell.CellType = "Currency";
this.ggc.TableDescriptor.Columns["DOLLARS"].Appearance.AnyRecordFieldCell.BaseStyle = "Money";


Any insight into this?
