* Anywhere you want to set dynamic coloring - ie: form init
thisform.myGrid.Setall('DynamicBackColor','(thisform.GimmeColor(manifest.status))')

*Form custom GimmeColor
lparameters tcValue
do case
case m.tcValue = 'A'
 return 0xFF0000
case m.tcValue = 'B'
 return 0x00FF00
case m.tcValue = 'C'
 return 0x0000FF
otherwise
 return 0xFFFFFF
endcase
