Sort Expression,Header is now a Link

[rikb53]

hey guys, ive got a data grid using the onSortCommand methods.
everything is working fine - i even was able to make this thing sort - Asc and Desc, by using a dataview and the Sort Property of that.
but my question is. when you use a Sort Function like this, the Header is then changed to a Link Style with the UnderLine, and of course it turns purple after its visited.
i know how to make that go away in JavaScript if it was a hyperlink with an anchor tag, but how can i do it in the datagrid itself, i've looked at all of the header properties and just cant find a thing.
i'm probably missing something really simple.
has anyone ever encountered this?
thanks

<ASPatagrid id="DG1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
AllowSorting="true" onSortCommand="SortEventHandler">
...
<Columns>
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="First_Name" SortExpression="First_Name"
HeaderText="First Name" />
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="Last_Name" SortExpression="Last_Name"
HeaderText="Last_Name" />

works great but has the header now with an underline and turns purple after the first hit

If you are fimiliar with Styles you could either use a style tag or create a class in your style sheet and reference the class in the cssClass property to change the link to the approipriate color.

great idea. i already have a css style sheet assigned to the page. i just need to figure out how to tell the datagrid itself to recognized that stylesheet and then each column header to recognize the class i built for that.
specifically
.myHeader
{
Text-Decoration: none;
}
hopefully that will work.
thanks for the suggestion

well, the css doesnt work. i mean it does work. i can add colors and all sorts of things, but getting rid of the underline is not happening
