Well, I set the Column.BackColor to green, and then put the line above (changing it for the actual column name) in the Grid.Init, and browsed a table that had a bunch of different dates. The dates less than today showed up as red: today and later showed up as the correct backcolor.

This also works, and semantically makes a bit more sense:

this.column1.DynamicBackColor = ;
   'iif(duedate < DATE(), ;
        RGB(255,50,50), ;
        this.column1.BackColor)'
