You can set it in the designer by rightclicking the datagridview and Selecting Edit Columns. Then select the column you want and on the right you can alter its read-only property.
In code you can use dataGridView1.Columns["ColumnName"].ReadOnly = true;

the paremter specified accepts only type int, if i try to pass it a string compiler complains

if you mean here: << .Columns["ColumnName"] >> you can pass it a column number like this: <<.Columns[0]>>, with 0 being the first column in the DGV
