If you’re working in VB.NET, copy this into the grids AddingDataRow event:

If (e.DataRow.Index Mod 2) = 0 Then
e.DataRow.BackColor = Color.White
Else
e.DataRow.BackColor = Color.Yellow
End If

and it should give you the idea.

If it helps (e.DataRow.Index Mod 2) works out if the rows index is odd (returns 1) or even (return 0), then colours then accordingly.

can’t help if you’re working in C# though, anyone….

Hello,

Although the solution provided would work, the order of the backcolor of the datarows would change when the grid is sorted. I would suggest you use the DataRowTemplateStyles property instead to alternate the color of the DataRows. For example:

gridControl1.DataRowTemplateStyles.Add( new VisualGridElementStyle() );
gridControl1.DataRowTemplateStyles.Add( new VisualGridElementStyle() );

gridControl1.DataRowTemplateStyles[ 0 ].BackColor = Color.White;
gridControl1.DataRowTemplateStyles[ 1 ].BackColor = Color.Yellow;

The code above assumes that the BackColor property of the DataRowTemplate is NOT set. If it is set, then all the rows will have the backcolor of the DataRowTemplate regardless of the backcolors specified via the DataRowTemplateStyles.

More information can be found here: http://doc.xceedsoft.com/products/gridNet/doc/sources/datarowtemplate_styles.htm

I hope this helps!
