Hello all,

I am adding data manually to a gridview with the following code:
C#
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
DataColumn dc = new DataColumn("column1");

DataRow dr = dt.NewRow();
dr["column1"] = "value1";
dt.Rows.AddNew(dr);

myDataGrid.DataSource = dt;
myDataGrid.DataBind();


But what I need know is during the addition of this row I need this row of that gridview in a different color that I specify. Is there a way that I can do it? I was looking at the row properties such as backcolor or so but I didnt see it. I also dont want to do it while databound because i am adding the values manually and in random places so I can not keep track of the row index. If this is doable please advise.

Thanks.

Add another column in your datatable as "customRow" set its value to yes wherever you add a row manually. In your gridview add a label(invisible) with text property set as "customRow". In rowdatabound evend use findcontrol method to find the text of the label and if it is "yes", add
C#
e.Row.Attributes.Add("style","this.class='your css style'");
