That's probably the best idea anyway. The Dynamic* properties of dColumn

are relative to the current row, so they are really meant for things

like BackColor, ForeColor, Font, etc.: things you want to look different

depending on the record it is representing. You probably don't want

Caption based on a particular row in the grid's dataset, but on

something external to that dataset.
