Prevent readonly columns from reorder

I have a D开发者_如何学运维ataGridView that has three read only columns in it and one or several other writable columns. The users have decided they need to be able to reorder the columns. I need a way to allow them them to reorder the writable columns but not the read only ones. The only thing I have thought of is to check if the column that was just moved in the ColumnDisplayIndexChanged event is read only, check it's name and then move it back to where I want it. I don't like that solution. Does anyone have a more elegant solution to this problem?

If column reordering is enabled, the frozen columns are treated as a group distinct from the unfrozen columns. Users can reposition columns in either group, but they cannot move a column from one group to the other.

Does this sound like what you want?

You could disable column reordering by default, and only enable it when the mouse cursor is over a column that you want to be moved.

Not that I actually tried this, but it's worth a try.
