Hi Cetin -- Let me try to describe this better. What I'm trying to do is have both different backcolors show at the same time, based on independent conditions. So for example, grid row 2 will have fixed blue backcolor while display data is on record #2, but scrolling will be the user default selected highlight colors.

For example, row #2 is now blue, and form data shows record #2 details. At exactly the same time, row #4 is red, the user default selectedbackcolor, and the grid is on record #4. Then user presses down arrow, and row #5 becomes red, but row #2 is still blue.
