GridColumn	null	The column that provides values to test against the current formatting rule.

Remarks

By default, if a cell in the Column meets the current GridFormatRule object, the format is applied to this cell. However, you can choose another target column using the GridFormatRule.ColumnApplyTo property.

In addition, the format can be applied to the entire row. To accomplish this, set the GridFormatRule.ApplyToRow property to true.
