Hello !

int RowIndex = 0;
this.dataGridView1.Rows[ RowIndex ].DefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.Red
this.dataGridView1.Rows[ RowIndex ].DefaultCellStyle.ForeColor = Color.White
;

Open in new window

Please confirm if this works as you wish.

Thanks !

Which property of the Grid, should the code be included?
