View 1 RepliesI was looking to change the background color of a datagrid cell when the cell value changes
View 1 RepliesIs there a way to locate a cell by back color? I have a datagrid, that will populate names, on some of the cells. Some of the cells will be empty.
I have it so if there is a name in the cell, the background color will change to blue. I also can look for a specific value, and locate the value that way, and then change the color the cell or whatever.
The problem is that I have 4 different status for a cell with the same name. So for example, "Joe" name will show up in the grid. That cell background will turn blue.
The next status is "Check-In". So I can return the value "Joe" from my database with a store procedure, and look for that value of "Joe" again, and change the color to red to show he is checked in. The other 2 status I have is In Session, Session over. The problem is what if there is more than 1 "Joe"?
I think the best way is using the datagrids CellPaintings. But I can't find any other value beside a value to locate a cell on that procedure. So I thought if there is a way I can find a cell by the e.value = "Joe" and cell.backcolor = color.blue, than I can avoid having problems with multiples names.
I would be open to any other ideas, or a better way of doing this. Oh, is there a way to use tags for a cell value? I thought that might be a way was well.
Is it possible to change the background color of a cell when I click on it?

View 2 RepliesI have a DGV where I'm setting the backcolor of certain cells to light gray. But I need to be able to restore the backcolor to what it was before I changed it to gray. I could just set it to transparent, but the problem with that is that I use an alternating row color of alice blue for the DGV & setting a cell in a blue row to transparent makes it white. So, in summary, I need to be able to restore white rows to white & blue rows to blue. Any ideas? I thought about checking the backcolor of another column in the row & then using that to reset the cell, but that seems kind of a hack.

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.
I am developing a report which outputs data in a SQL Table via an ASPX page, using VB. How do I code this so that all rows containing a "1" for one of the columns, shows up as red? Here is what I have so far. This doesn't cause any errors, but it doesn't show up as red either.
