Can it be done?

I have a table, and in the <TD> I have <Td runat="server" id="mycell"
class="myclass"></td>

In the code behind, I can access mycell.style, but there is no
mycell.CssClass...

There is mycell.Attributes["class"]. Is it what you are after?

I think you need to do:

mycell.Attributes.Add("class", "somethingElse");

That's it. Seems odd that I can't refer to CssClass like with other
elements.

The reason is because CssClass is a property of the WebControl class whereas
<td runat=server...> makes an instance of the HtmlTableCell class which is a
descendant of the HtmlControl as opposed to WebControl.

Then you would think I would have access to the .Class property,
similar to the way I have access to the .BgColor and .Style properties
of the cell.

I agree...Except Class is a reserved keyword in most languages...none the
less, there are some additional core attributes which should be exposed.
