Thanks Craig,

That is the way I have been doing it, in the Init(), but seem to be setting the whole column based on the first value and does not refresh. I have to close and open the form to get the new color. I tried puting the same code in the Refresh() as well, but that didn't fix it either.

I will go back to Solutions Samples and start over. Thanks again.
