you can set column fields to read only as below :

frmNew.DataGridView1.Columns(0).ReadOnly = True

Replace 0 by Column number or column name.

frmNew.DataGridView1.Columns(0).ReadOnly
 = True

the ...Columns(0) is not working, instead i changed it to Columns[0] and the build was successful

i did your suggestion, but it didn't worked.
but when i ran the form, and fired the event,
The columns still didn't changed to ReadOnly = true

what is the exception, which is raised?

there's no exception, its just there is no result occurs.

e.g. when i click the add, the DataGridView column 1 should be programatically set ReadOnly to false, but its not happening.
