In a message long, long ago (Feb 07), Sytze asked about changing
different grid columns as well as rows with DynamicBackColor:
> I have a grid with an INIT like:

> RGB(192,192,192),RGB(255,255,255))", "Column")

Sietse Wijnker then responded:

I'm trying to take this one step further. I would like to change the
backcolor of any cell in a grid. I've got a cursor supporting the grid,
with columns named c1, c2, etc., and an array of colors that map to the
cursor, like so:
col1 col2
row1 green red
row2 red yellow
row3 blue yellow
and want to use that as the dynamic back color for each cell in the grid.
And I'm close, oh so close....
Option 1:
thisform.grid.setall("DynamicBackColor", ;
"eval(thisform.aCellColor[recn('csrGrid'), ;
<some expression>],) ;
")
but no matter how much fidgeting I do, I can't get anything to work for
'some expression' that will return the column number in the same manner
as recn() works for the row number.
Option 2:
I've also tried spinning through each column, setting dynamicbackcolor
for just that column, but that has no effect:
thisform.grid.column1.dynamicbackcolor ;
= thisform.aCellColor[recn('csrGrid'),1]
but this puts the same color in every row - so column 1 is green for
rows 1->3.
Ideas?
