Change a row Colour in a datagrid

[phillip]

I Have a datagrid that has a datatable.

 

I have filled the table with data but want to Change the colour of one Row.

How do i do this?

 

Ps. I'm a bit of a newb :)

I'm currently using this (only way I found...):

[size=2][color=#0000ff]private[/color][/size][size=2] [/size][size=2][color=#0000ff]void[/color][/size][size=2] dgPosts_ItemCreated([/size][size=2][color=#0000ff]object[/color][/size][size=2] sender, System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridItemEventArgs e)
{

[/size][size=2][color=#0000ff]if[/color][/size][size=2]( e.Item.ItemIndex == 1 )

{

e.Item.BackColor = Color.LightGray;

}

}

 

I'm using this code also... so I search a lot to find the better way to do it... but this one is really the best (at least... I think)

I should have mentioned that its not a web form

I managed to find this code that works,

The problem is it works when the form loads

How would i merge this into a current routine rather that the form loading? :confused:

 

 

Add custom code for the datagrid Paint event.

 

Private Sub Grid_Paint(ByVal sender As Object,

ByVal e As system.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) Handles Grid.Paint

 

Dim Myrect As Rectangle

Dim row as Integer = 0

Dim column as Integer = 0

 

Myrect = Grid.GetCellBounds(row, column)

e.Graphics.DrawRectangle(new Pen(color.red), myrect)

e.Graphics.FillRectangle(New SolidBrush(Color.Red), Myrect)

 

e.Graphics.DrawString(Grid.Item(row, column), Grid.Font, New SolidBrush(Color.White), Myrect.X, Myrect.Y)

 

 

End Sub
