Ask this in the ASP.NET Forum. But, AFAIK, horizontal column headers are not supported.

AFAIK, it can be done using HTML (in the column header template), but it might have cross-browser problems. IMHO the best way would be rendering the vertical text image and placing it as the column header.

I figured someone may have had a workaround. That's why I told him to ask in the ASP.NET forum. I'm not expert at webforms, to be sure.

I just happened to do such a workaround a couple of years ago, but can't find the source ;)
