Hi Priya,

Try the following code snippet to set backcolor of Grid columns depending on their column UniquName.

CS:

 protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        foreach (GridColumn col in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.RenderColumns)
        {
            if (col.UniqueName == "ProductName")
            {
                col.HeaderStyle.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Pink;
                col.ItemStyle.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Pink;
            }
            else if (col.UniqueName == "ProductID")
            {
                col.HeaderStyle.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Plum ;
                col.ItemStyle.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Plum;
            }
        }
    }

Thanks

Hi Priya,

Or you can give a different color to the alternate rows using your CSS file.
For example like in Office2007 skin you can add "background:#C4DDFF;" in GridAltRow_Office2007 td class:-

.GridAltRow_Office2007 td
{
    background:#C4DDFF;
    font-family:Arial;
    font-size:11px;
    overflow: hidden;
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
}

Hope it helps you.

Thanks

But when i select the row ,selected row color is not applied in the colored row

Hi Priya,

For selected row you have to modify
.SelectedRow_Office2007 td,
.ActiveRow_Office2007 td classes..

e.g.:-

.SelectedRow_Office2007 td,
.ActiveRow_Office2007 td
{
    background : #A7CDF0;
    font-family:Arial;
    font-size:11px;
}
