c# - Change Color of Button in DataGridView Cell

Question

I have a large DataGridView control that has several cells most of which contain a button. How can I change the color of those buttons?

This changes the "outline" of the button but not the button itself.

row.Cells[2].Style.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;

This doesn't seem to change anything that's visible:

row.Cells[2].Style.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;

If it's not possible to change the background, is it possible to change the font on the button?

Using .NET 2.0.

I missed Dave's note on Tomas' answer so i am just posting the simple solution to this.

Update the FlatStyle property of the Button column to Popup and then by updating the backcolor and forecolor you can change the appearance of the button.

DataGridViewButtonColumn c = (DataGridViewButtonColumn)myGrid.Columns["colFollowUp"];
c.FlatStyle = FlatStyle.Popup;
c.DefaultCellStyle.ForeColor = Color.Navy;
c.DefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.Yellow;
