    If Me.dataGrid1 IsNot Nothing Then
        If cbi.Content.ToString() = "All" Then
            Me.dataGrid1.GridLinesVisibility = DataGridGridLinesVisibility.All
        ElseIf cbi.Content.ToString() = "Vertical (Default)" Then
            Me.dataGrid1.GridLinesVisibility = DataGridGridLinesVisibility.Vertical
        ElseIf cbi.Content.ToString() = "Horizontal" Then
            Me.dataGrid1.GridLinesVisibility = DataGridGridLinesVisibility.Horizontal
        Else
            Me.dataGrid1.GridLinesVisibility = DataGridGridLinesVisibility.None
        End If
