Evan,

I've used this in an app I'm working on at the moment set the ColumnDynamicBackColor to:

thisform.StageColor(recno("stackstages"))

With this Form.StageColor() method:

* this method provides the colored cells for the grdStages
* they match the colors of the pages from the stack ticket

lparameter pnRecno

do case
case ( pnRecno = 1 ) && Yard
return rgb( 255, 255, 255 )
case ( pnRecno = 2 ) && Pre Dryer
return rgb( 255, 255, 0 )
case ( pnRecno = 3 ) && Kiln
return rgb( 255, 128, 255 )
case ( pnRecno = 4 ) && Cooling Shed
return rgb( 255, 128, 0 )
case ( pnRecno = 5 ) && Plant
return rgb( 255, 255, 164 )
otherwise
return rgb( 192, 192, 192 )
endcase

In this case the grid only displays 5 rows, but it keeps you from having to to create some monsterous IIF()
