VB.net Datagridview cellstyle colors

Hi All

I am using VB.net 2005 professional

I set the background color of a datagridview cell to different colors
depending on many reasons

I set them in the cellformatting event and all works great, i.e the colors
appear as requested
e.g e.CellStyle.Bac kColor = Color.Red

When I try to read the color in Datagridview.mo useclick event using...
If
dgvgroup.Rows(h it.RowIndex).Ce lls(hit.ColumnI ndex).Inherited Style.BackColor
= mycolor Then

it always returns false

end if

Note: mycolor = color.salmonpin k and actual grid cell color =
color.salmonpin k

but
dgvgroup.Rows(h it.RowIndex).Ce lls(hit.ColumnI ndex).Inherited Style.BackColor
returns color.honeydew which is the defaultcellstyl e.backcolor set in

datagridview properties defaultcellstyl e in design environment

what am I doing wrong

Regards

Steve

I have a class that among others exposes a string property "Date". The date in this property is stored in the form yyyymmdd. Now I do the following 1) Generate a DataGridViewTextBoxColumn column for that property 2) Add the column to the datagridview 3) Populate a BindingSource by adding all instances of the above mentioned class. 4) Assign the BindingSource to the datagridview's DataSource property

How does "e.CellStyle" work?

Hi, I searched a lot about changing the DataGridView cell borders. BYTES helped me so I will write down the solution: 1. You should override the class DataGridViewTextBoxCell, and the new class should have a property of type DataGridViewAdvancedBorderStyle, this property you will change from the outside: 2. You will override also the PaintBorder, and Paint methods in a way that they will get the new property instead of the default one....

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
