It has been some time since I have used a regular datagrid on a winform
(have been using Infragistics grids instead). However, today I tried
working with a datagrid but ran into a problem. I need to make a couple of
the columns on the grid not visible. That is, the grid is mapped to a
datasource.

The material I have says all I need to do is right click on the grid and
select Property Builder, but I see no Property Builder option when right
clicking on a grid. What am I missing.

Using VS 2003.
