conditional change of a datagridviews cell background color and text
11,640
Solution 1
I got it working... in the RowPostPaint
event.. If I put in
if (my criteria here)
Me.dgTableInfo.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells("ColumnName").Style.BackColor = Color.Red
end if
Solution 2
Don't forget to set the selectoinBackColor too... otherwise if your red row changes, but you have it highlighted, it will look just like all the rest anyway.
Solution 3
This works without creating or calling multiple subs or functions. Seems to work for every instance I need it to.
Do While myDataReader.Read()
ItemID = Trim(myDataReader.Item("ITEM").ToString())
PAR = myDataReader.Item("PAR").ToString()
Returned = myDataReader.Item("RETURNED_AMOUNT")
Taken = myDataReader.Item("TAKEN_AMOUNT")
OnHand = ((PAR + Returned) - Taken)
DataGridViewItemList.Rows.Add(ItemID, PAR, Returned, Taken, OnHand)
RI = DataGridViewItemList.Rows.Count - 1
If OnHand <= (PAR / 2) Then
DataGridViewItemList.Rows(RI).DefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.DarkSalmon
Else
DataGridViewItemList.Rows(RI).DefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Nothing
End If
Loop

This is for a winform vb.net 2008 app. I'm bringing data back from a database and based on some static conditions... i want to change the color of the background and the text. There is no rowdatabound event in winform...
hope someone can provide some guidance thanks shannon
