private int GetStringLength(string StringToMeasure)
{
    System.Drawing.Graphics oGraphics = this.CreateGraphics();
    Font sGridFont = _MyGrid.Font;
    string sDummyString = StringToMeasure;
    SizeF stringSize = new SizeF();
    stringSize = oGraphics.MeasureString(sDummyString, sGridFont);

I can only imagine that something is wrong with the font or you pass an
extremely long string to that method.
If both doesn't apply I guess it is a bug.
