>>>>I had an IIF statement in the dynamicBackcolor property of a grid that wasn't working correctly. So I started to try and figure out what was wrong and then realized I can't get the DynamicBackColor to work at all for me. I must be doing something wrong...I have ="rgb(255,0,0)". I've tried it with and without the quotes.

I did exactly that...still doesn't work.
This blows my mind.

Any other ideas?
