Use the DBGrids DrawColumnCell event
Example
procedure TfrmMain.DBGrid1DrawColumnCell(Sender: TObject;
const Rect: TRect; DataCol: Integer; Column: TColumn;
State: TGridDrawState);
begin
with (Sender as TDBGrid).Canvas do
begin
// here we are testing if this row is selected
If gdSelected in State Then // if selected
begin
Brush.Color:=clBlue; //highlight row in blue
Font.Color:=clWhite; //further hilite cell
end;
// example of testing a field value
case DataCol of
0: begin // first row
if column.Field.AsString <> '' then // test a condition etc
begin
If gdSelected in State Then // if selected different
colour etc
Font.Color:=clLime
else
Font.Color:=clRed;
end;
end;
end; // end case
End;
// must call this line at end
DBGrid1.DefaultDrawColumnCell(Rect,DataCol,Column,State);
end;

Re my earlier question re TDBGrid. I know how to stop entry of the 2
display records, the only (small I hope) hurdle is the colouring of
indiviual record lines.
Does anyone know how to change the background colour OR font style OR Font
Colour for an individual row in a TDBGrid.

Subject: [DUG]: DB Grids
Hi
We have an app where we want in grid DB editing. We would like a table
where 3 records are displayed per item, one for user entry and two that
display related stock values. We know in standard db grids we can disable
column editing and change its color.
1: Can we disable entry in two out of every three rows?
2: Less importantly can we change the colour of the two detail rows?
If number 1 is impossible (which I suspect it is) which alternative grids
would you recommend?
TIA Rob
