Just for the record  I got borders in the table and to get rid of it I needed to set following properties in the GridView   GridLines  None  CellSpacing  -1

You need to set useaccessibleheader attribute of the gridview to true and also then also specify a TableSection to be a header after calling the DataBind   method on you GridView object  So if your grid view is mygv  mygv UseAccessibleHeader   True mygv HeaderRow TableSection   TableRowSection TableHeader   This should result in a proper formatted grid with thead and tbody tags

There are 2 steps to resolve this    Add UseAccessibleHeader  true  to Gridview tag    lt asp GridView ID  MyGridView  runat  server  UseAccessibleHeader  true  gt   Add the following Code to the PreRender event     Protected Sub MyGridView PreRender sender As Object  e As EventArgs  Handles MyGridView PreRender     Try         MyGridView HeaderRow TableSection   TableRowSection TableHeader     Catch ex As Exception     End Try End Sub   Note setting Header Row in DataBound   works only when the object is databound  any other postback that doesn t databind the gridview will result in the gridview header row style reverting to a standard row again  PreRender works everytime  just make sure you have an error catch for when the gridview is empty
