Some things are so simple that most people do not think to document them.

For example:
“How do you set a GridView caption a different color then the rest of the grid?”
The simplest way is to set the GridView ForeColor equal to the color you want the caption then set the HeaderStyle and RowStyle ForeColor equal to the default color
So if you wanted a red caption and black text in the column name and rows …

    <asp:gridview id="GridView1" runat="server"

        caption="Your Caption" forecolor="red">
        <HeaderStyle ForeColor="black" />
        <RowStyle ForeColor="black" />
        <Columns>
