Hi That was ASP web application event. You can use below code for Windows Applictaion - private void dataGridView1_CellFormatting(object sender DataGridViewCellFormattingEventArgs e) { DataGridViewRow newRow = this.dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex]; if (newRow.DataBoundItem != null) { int status = int.Parse(newRow.Cells[1].Value.ToString());//Change 1 to your status column index if (status == 1) { newRow.DefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.Red; } if (status == 2) { newRow.DefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.Green; } if (status == 3) { newRow.DefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.Orange; } } }

Hi Please use below code on rowdatabound event of gridview - protected void GriviewRowDataBound(object sender GridViewRowEventArgs e) { if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow) { int status = int.Parse(e.Row.Cells[1].Text);//Here index should be changed according to index of your status column foreach (TableCell cell in e.Row.Cells) { if (status == 1) { cell.BackColor = Color.Red; } if (status ==2) { cell.BackColor = Color.Green; } if (status==3) { cell.BackColor = Color.Orange; } } } } Please have a look at below link for details - http://www.aspsnippets.com/Articles/Dynamically-change-GridView-Row-Background-Color-based-on-condition-in-ASPNet-using-C-and-VBNet.aspx
