    The only way I’ve found to “disable” highlighting is to set the SelectionBackColor and the SelectionForeColor in the DefaultCellStyle to the same as the BackColor and ForeColor, respectively. You could probably do this programmatically on the form’s Load event, but I’ve also done it in the designer.

    Something like this:

    Me.DataGridView1.DefaultCellStyle.SelectionBackColor = Me.DataGridView1.DefaultCellStyle.BackColor
Me.DataGridView1.DefaultCellStyle.SelectionForeColor = Me.DataGridView1.DefaultCellStyle.ForeColor
