DataGrid Row Color

[Dave]

Is it possible to change the backcolor of all rows in a
Windows VB.Net DataGrid that have a common
characteristic. For example, all rows with a balance <
$0?

Hello Dave,

Thanks for your post. As I understand, you want to change the backcolor on
condition for datagrid cells. Please correct me if there is any
misunderstanding. I'd like to share the following information with you:

1. If it's a DataGrid web control, you can use the DataGridItem.BackColor
property to set the color of certain cells. Please refer to the following
sample:

2. If you are using DataGrid WinForm control, you will need to override the
Paint() method to draw the backcolor of certain cells. The following
articles provides more detailed information on this subject:

As suggested by Ken, it's very helpful:
