Does anyone know an easy way to do this ?

Answer 1

I managed to make it look like this ( http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/9417/failedwpfdatagridstylin.jpg ) using the following code in a resource file. However, it still does not look like the HTML counterpart ( http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/2563/saltoftheearth.jpg )….It has to many borders …. Any ideas on how to make this WPF datagrid look nicer ?
