grid.Rows[0].DefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.Red; works for the whole row for me... But this is for the whole row, not an individual cell.

We are using this to display red for expired dates and yellow for products which will expire soon.

i tried that too but it doesnt work at all I never change to color of the row

Try it once more after your grid is fully displayed. Instead of setting the color during fill out, fill it up, display and then loop through all rows and then set the color.

Answer 2

A:

If you want to change the backcolor of the entire grid do this:

        GridView1.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Navy;
