change row color in datgrid, when store data?

[tusa]

Hello.

Is it possible, and how, to set the color of a row, when I store data in my datagrid?
It is not alle rows, wich should change, only the row I submit data in.

Best regards Tue.

Hi.

Perhaps check out page 165 in the DG user guide.

And where do I find that?

But that's when you highlight a row in the datagrid?
What I want is to fill some data in some text fields, when I push button, the data goes into the datagrid, and when I fill in these data by clicking the button, then i should change the color of that row, not the text.
Doews that make sense?

Hi.

I am not sure if there is a native way to colorize a row in a DG. Maybe Trevor knows

But the fields in such a gadget are all named according to the extent of the DG itself. So the fields in row 2, say, are named:

"col 1 0002"
"col 2 0002"
"col 3 0002"
etc.

So you can always set the backColor of those fields to whatever you wish. Note that a DG has the "opaque" property of those fields set to "false" on creation, so you will want to set them to "true".

You can write a general handler to do this to any row (or column) you want, and that would be a fun little project.
