If you want the contents of some DataGridView cells to be simply informative (i.e., they are static) when the cells are in Display Mode (i.e., not in Edit mode), then you will have to sub-class DataGridView.Cell, and Paint the Cell yourself.

I believe the necessity for custom Painting the Cell will make binding impossible, but I'm not sure about that, and that's why I am posting this as a comment, rather than a solution.

Unfortunately the text property of Gridview cell does not support this feature. You can set the whole text as bold, Italic or a color .. but not each individual character of the string.

What you could do is write a custom usercontrol and add it to the cell. Then you should be able to do this. Sounds like a hassle, and it is .. but I don't see any other way.

A UserControl can only appear in a DataGridView cell when the cell is in edit mode.

To my recollection you can actually add custom usercontrols to an individual DataGridView cell, even in both modes. I've done it in the past.
