+## Description
+
+I have a Grid that displays numeric data. The numbers in the data cells are aligned to the right with the `TextAlign` column attribute. How do I align the text content of Grid header cells to the right?
+
+## Solution
+
+To align the Grid header cell labels to the right, use custom CSS as per the example below. Note that different CSS rules are needed, depending on the Grid configuration. The CSS code affects all columns.
