Of course the *ahem* 'correct' way to do this sort of thing is to create your own DataGridViewCell class and include that in your own DataGridViewColumn class. One advantage of that is, of course that it will be available for use in other situations.

YourDataGridView.Columns[TheColumn].DefaultCellStyle.Padding = new Padding(Left, Top, Right, Bottom);

this.Style.Padding = new Padding(Left, Top, Right, Bottom);

IMO it looks like Microsoft are trying to replace the C# language with the VB language (which is clearly for people with no logical sense who want to be programmers - which shouldnt happen)

Optional parameters is (are?) a little odd because we have function overloading for this reason.
