basically, when a user selects a row... the colors should inverse. for instance, if the background color is red and the foregrould is black when the user selects the row, the foreground becomes red and the background black... and then goes back to its orginal color when the user leaves the row.
I am trying to change the font color of cell(s) that are selected by the user. So, the user highlights the cells, then presses a button to change the font color. I tried using datagridview1.selectedcells, but couldn't figure it out.
I want to have my current row stand out as the current row by virtue of the background color.I also want my current cell stand out from the row color.
in other words i want to controll the background of the current cell as well as the current row, and have these colors different from each other as wel as the background from the non current cells.
I am getting confused with the notion of the current row vs the selected row.I have tried messing with the default row style.selectedbackgroungcolor as well as the same for the default cell style, but cant get it to work the way i want.
i can almost get it if i set the selection mode to full row, but then cannot get the current cell to have a different background color.
Alright inside of a combo box I have a list of colors and I want to change the background color of the combo box to the selected color...basically this... but im not sure what the problem is here anyone have some advice or is this not possible?

I've been googling, testing, etc for a couple hours and I'm right where I started off. the vb.net tab control sucks... Does anyone have an tips or code to make it so when I select a tab the font color changes OR it just makes the tab heading text bold?I've messed around with the draw commands and while that does work, it draws the borders/backgrounds so they are very old / outdated looking.This is basically for a simple tab text editor I'm working on when a textbox in the control changes I can update the associated tab with either a red font or just bold it to indicate the textbox on that tab is modified. I've definitely be open for alternative tab controls as long as they are free and come with a vb.net example :)

I have a bunch of columns in a datagrid view (date, transaction type, amount).If the amount in a row is '150.00', I want to make that cell red.I made a Private Sub and run this after the datagridview is filled.
Private Sub ColorCells() Dim ColumnCount As Integer ColumnCount = dgvLedger.ColumnCount - 1[code].....
However it seems to have two bugs. When it is first run the first time when the form is loaded, it doesn't put the rows with 150.00 in it in red.If I have a button on the form and set it to run this Private Sub, then it runs through it again and will color the ones in 150 as red.If I resort the datagridview by clicking on a column, they all return to green again, and it looses the formatting.

For example: If the date in a cell is past the current date, that cell and its row are formatted with the forecolor red.
