nametoColindex in a hierarchycally grid model

Hi, i tried to get the use the nametoColIndex function in a hierarchycal grid. It only worked with the parent-row. I want to "mask" some cells by hand with the event PrepareViewStyleInfo. How can i do that in a hierarchical grid (only in the child-row !) ??? Kind regards, Stefan

This object has much information on the row such as its hierarchy level, its child list, its position in its parent, etc... Here is a code snippet:

Dim rs As GridBoundRecordState = Me.gridDataBoundGrid1.Binder.GetRecordStateAtRowIndex(e.RowIndex)
Dim gbc As GridBoundColumn = Me.gridDataBoundGrid1.Binder.GetHierarchyLevel(rs.LevelIndex).InternalColumns("ColName")
If Not gbc is Nothing Then
	Dim field As Integer = Me.gridDataBoundGrid1.Binder.GetHierarchyLevel(rs.LevelIndex).InternalColumns.IndexOf(gbc)
	If Me.gridDataBoundGrid1.Binder.FieldToColIndex(field) = e.ColIndex Then
		'found the column...
	End If
End If

It works ! Thanks a lot for your support
