Hi - I'm trying to apply some spacing between the columns on a gridview, here's what I have so far with gridview setup and css

<asp:GridView id="gdvEnvironmentApps" runat="server" OnRowCommand="gdvEnvironmentApps_RowCommand"
                  CssClass="gridview" GridLines="Horizontal"
                  CellPadding="4" EmptyDataText="No Records Found"
                  AutoGenerateColumns="False" >
                  <RowStyle BackColor="#F7F6F3" ForeColor="#333333" HorizontalAlign="Left"  />
                  <HeaderStyle CssClass="gridviewHeader"/>
                  <AlternatingRowStyle BackColor="White" ForeColor="#333333"   />
                  <EmptyDataRowStyle CssClass="Label_Small_Bold" ForeColor="#C00000" HorizontalAlign="Center"  />

CSS

.gridview
{
    width:98%;
    border:solid 1px #bbbbbb;
    /* align-content:space-around;
    font-family: Arial;
    font-size: smaller;
    padding: 0em 1.2em; */
    padding-right: 10em;
    font: 8pt "tahoma";
}
.gridviewHeader
{
    background: #c8dce1 url(../images/tablehead_bg_v2.gif) 0 0 repeat-x;
    border:solid 1px;
    width:98%;
    font-weight: bold;
    height:30px;
    padding-right: 10em;
}
What else should I be checking that is overriding the CSS
