Antonio - this is the code you sent that works fine:

This.HighlightForeColor = EVALUATE(This.Columns[1].DynamicForeColor)

What would I have to change in it to call it from the child grid, if something changes in the data there to make the color in the parent grid change?

I have tried changing it to:

Thisform.grid1.HighlightForeColor = EVALUATE(Thisform.grid1.Columns[1].DynamicForeColor),

But that gives an error..

Thanks for the help!
