Calculating Width of DataGrid

[DLLHell]

Are there any rules with calculating the width of a Datagrid? I am defining a DIV with the width style based on the varying length of the Datagrid. The DataGrid.Width property is never available (it stays at Zero all the time except when viewed in View/Source) so I define it by calculating the total Pixels in the largest row in the grid but that at times still truncates the grid within the DIV usually by less than 100 pixels when that happens.

Any ideas? Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

The problem with doing something right the first time is that nobody appreciates how difficult it was.
