datagridview column naming

Hello,

I've hit what appears to be a serious problem with an unbound datagridview control that Ive added to
a VB.Net program. Inadvertently I named one column 'Name' and a second 'Size'. The designer allowed
me to do it but when I came to run the program the designer reported an error and looking at the
error messages it it confusing the datagridview column with the form on which the control resides. I
can't delete the datagridviw because I get the error message whenever I try to access the design
view of the form.

The error highlighted is at the point when the designer is assigning a text value to the form name,
as in Me.Name = "frmForm". It reports that a string value cannot be converted to a
datagridview.te xtboxcolumn. There is a prior assignemtn of me.name = new datagridviewtex tcolumn.
How do I remove the offending column(s) or datagridview ?
Thanks

Hello, I am reading data from a sql server table that is under replication. This table has the replicatin GUID column that is generated with replicatin.

I'm trying to make a datagridview column to act like a datetimepicker column (C#.Net 2005). These are the behaviours that the dgv should have: 1) Initially all the cells of the dtp column should be blank unless they are filled by the user. 2) As soon as the user enters a cell, the dtp control should appear as the editing control of that cell. If there's a value in the cell beforehand, that value is set as the value of the dtp editing control...
