color in DataGrid

Hi all,

i've been trying to put some color in individual rows/columns of the DataGrid control.

Sofar i havent had any luck, it seems somewhat strange to me that this is not possible.

Has anybody ever succeeded in this?

I want to avoid building my own custom control and subclassing a DataGrid just to get colors..

Thanx to all

What is DataGrid control. I am a newbie.

Have you had any luck about placing colors on individual rows on a datagrid? I have managed to use DataGrid1.SelBookmarks.Add DataGrid1.RowBookmark(i) to highlite an area but this is not what I want.

Any ideas?

hi
I'm pretty sure that the DataGrid control doesnt support cell, row or column colours. The newer msFlexgrid and MSHFlexgrid allow colouring of individual elements using the CellBackColor / ForeColor properties. Do you need to stick with the data grid or could u change to one of these controls?

I can change and will try this. Thanks
