Change color of row based on bound YES/No column.

I have a YES/NO Field bound to a column in a gridview. If that column is false, I would like to change color of row, otherwise leave as is.

I found another posting and came up with following that works when added to the "gvWorkweek2.RowDataBound" event.

I also added a line ".Cells(0).Visible = False" that hides first column, which has the edit and delete tags. But when I do this the header text for the column is still there. How can I hide that as well? Here is my code.

With e.Row
Dim rv As Data.DataRow
If .RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow Then
rv = CType(.DataItem, Data.DataRowView).Row
' Change color
If Not IsDBNull(rv("Approved")) Then
If rv("Approved") = "True" Then
.BackColor = Drawing.Color.Red
.Cells(0).Visible = False
Else

End If
End If
End If
End With
