    songsDataGridView.Columns("Title").Name = DataGridViewContentAlignment.BottomCenter.ToString()

    songsDataGridView.Columns("Artist").DefaultCellStyle.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.BottomLeft
    songsDataGridView.Columns("Artist").Name = DataGridViewContentAlignment.BottomLeft.ToString()

    songsDataGridView.Columns("Album").DefaultCellStyle.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.BottomRight
    songsDataGridView.Columns("Album").Name = DataGridViewContentAlignment.BottomRight.ToString()

    songsDataGridView.Columns("Release Date").DefaultCellStyle.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleCenter
    songsDataGridView.Columns("Release Date").Name = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleCenter.ToString()

    songsDataGridView.Columns("Track").DefaultCellStyle.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleLeft

Remarks

The default DataGridViewCellStyle returned by this property has the following initial property values:

DataGridViewCellStyle property Default value
Alignment DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleCenter
NullValue CheckState.Indeterminate if the initial ThreeState property value is true; otherwise, false.

These values override the value specified in the DefaultCellStyle property of the DataGridView control, but may be overridden by other cell style properties. For more information, see Cell Styles in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control.

If the NullValue property of the object returned by the DefaultCellStyle property has a value of false, changing the ThreeState property value to true automatically sets NullValue to Indeterminate. If NullValue has a value of Indeterminate, changing the ThreeState property value to false automatically sets NullValue to false.
