One more time, you have to assign an expression that will be evaluated later during grid refresh not at the time of assignment

thisform.grid1.column2.DynamicForeColor = "IIF((tbltest.nid % 2)=0,RGB(254,0,0),RGB(255,255,255))"

>thisform.grid1.column2.DynamicForeColor = IIF(MOD(tbltest.nid,2)=0,'RGB(254,0,0)','RGB(255,255,255)')
