You can write the below code in RowDataBound event.

C#

 void gridview1_RowDataBound(object sender, 
  GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    var gridview1 = sender as GridView;
    if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
    {
            string id = gridview1.DataKeys[e.row.RowIndex]["Hid"].ToString();
            switch (id)
            {
                case 12:
                e.row.BackColor = Color.Red;
                break;
                case 13:
                e.row.BackColor = Color.Yellow;
                break;
                case 14:
                e.row.BackColor = Color.Green;
                break;

            }
    }
}

Solution 1

on Row_bound event of gridview use

C#

if (e.Row.Cells[0].Text == "12")
          {
              e.Row.Cells[0].ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;
          }
else if(e.Row.Cells[0].Text == "13")
          {
              e.Row.Cells[0].ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Yellow;
          }

then on what condition you want to change color?

You can set any logic like even id's have color red odd have yellow or any.

C#

private void dgr_RowsAdded(object sender, DataGridViewRowsAddedEventArgs e)
{
    string testValue = dgr.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[0].Value.ToString();
    Color setColor = dgr.Rows[e.RowIndex].DefaultCellStyle.BackColor;

    switch (testValue)
    {
        case "12":
            setColor = Color.Red;
            break;
        case "13":
            setColor = Color.Yellow;
            break;
        case "14":
