    You have to set the property EnableHeadersVisualStyles to false in order to get your custom settings work.

    this.myDgv.EnableHeadersVisualStyles = false;
    this.myDgv.Columns[ 0 ].HeaderCell.Style.BackColor = Color.Red;
    

    This should work.

    // EDIT: Ahh you don’t want to do it via code, but the generel approach works also with the designer. The property EnableHeadersVisualStyles is a direct property of the DataGridView and the color of column you set in the property ColumnHeadersDefaultCellStyle.
