According to Microsoft (
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;323169 ), there
is bug in the the datagrid control, causing content to wrap in the
columns of a datagrid eventhough HeaderStyle Wrap or the ItemStyle Wrap
property to False.

Following the advice in the same support article, I have modified my
datagrid to become the following:

<asp:datagrid id="MySQLDataGrid" PageSize="6" DataKeyField="ID"
autogeneratecolumns="False" AlternatingItemStyle-BackColor="#C0C0C0"
    AllowPaging="True" OnPageIndexChanged="PageChange"
HeaderStyle-BackColor="#88B5DA" Width="100%"
    runat="server">
    <SelectedItemStyle BackColor="Gold"></SelectedItemStyle>
    <EditItemStyle CssClass="MyListitem"></EditItemStyle>
    <AlternatingItemStyle BackColor="Silver"></AlternatingItemStyle>
    <ItemStyle CssClass="myListItem"></ItemStyle>
    <HeaderStyle CssClass="myListItem" BackColor="#88B5DA"></HeaderStyle>
    <Columns>
        <asp:BoundColumn DataField="name" HeaderText="name">
            <HeaderStyle Wrap="False" Width="40px"></HeaderStyle>
            <ItemStyle Wrap="False" Width="40px"></ItemStyle>
            <FooterStyle Wrap="False"></FooterStyle>
        </asp:BoundColumn>
        <asp:BoundColumn DataField="position" HeaderText="position">
            <HeaderStyle Wrap="False" Width="90px"></HeaderStyle>
            <ItemStyle Wrap="False" Width="90px"></ItemStyle>
            <FooterStyle Wrap="False"></FooterStyle>
        </asp:BoundColumn>
        <asp:BoundColumn DataField="note1" HeaderText="note 1Regarding">
            <HeaderStyle Wrap="False" Width="200px"></HeaderStyle>
            <ItemStyle Wrap="False" Width="200px" Height="15px"></ItemStyle>
            <FooterStyle Wrap="False"></FooterStyle>
        </asp:BoundColumn>
        <asp:BoundColumn DataField="note2" HeaderText="note 2">
            <HeaderStyle Wrap="False" Width="200px"></HeaderStyle>
            <ItemStyle Wrap="False" Width="200px"></ItemStyle>
            <FooterStyle Wrap="False"></FooterStyle>
        </asp:BoundColumn>
    </Columns>
    <PagerStyle Font-Size="Small"></PagerStyle>
</asp:datagrid>

However, the text still wraps in those columns. What am I missing here?

Any advice will be highly appreciated.

Thanks
