title: How to increase cell width of MVC Grid?
body: <p>I am developing ASP.net MVC application.</p>
  
  <p>I have used MVC Grid - Html Grid in it.
  I want to increase the width of the columns but I cant. 
  I dont want to change the Grid CSS.</p>
  
  <p>I have mentioned width property twice but none of it works...</p>
  
  <p>Here is my code.</p>
  
  <pre><code> @model IEnumerable&lt;StockWatchScreen.Controllers.Customer&gt;
  @using GridMvc.Html
  @using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
  
  @{
      ViewBag.Title = "Index";
  }
  
  &lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;
  
  &lt;html&gt;
  
  &lt;body&gt;
      &lt;div class="listheading span9" style="font-size:22px;margin-bottom:30px;margin-left:0.10px"&gt;Customer&lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;hr /&gt;
      &lt;div style="width:500px;"&gt;
          @Html.Grid(Model).Columns(columns =&gt; 
                      {
                          columns.Add(c =&gt; c.Code).Titled("Code");
                          columns.Add(c =&gt; c.Name).Titled("Name").SetWidth(500);
                          columns.Add(c =&gt; c.Address).Titled("Address");
                          columns.Add(c =&gt; c.OfficePhone).Titled("OfficePhone");
                          columns.Add(c =&gt; c.Email).Titled("Email");
                          columns.Add(c =&gt; c.FaxNo).Titled("FaxNo");
                          columns.Add(c =&gt; c.City).Titled("City");
                         }).WithPaging(4).Sortable(true).Filterable(true)  
  
  
      &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/body&gt;
  &lt;/html&gt;
