I see what you have done here but what the color of each cell is dynamic and will change so if I hardcode this in the cellbackgroundpaint event it wont work...... Basically I run an SQL query and if it tells the cell is done I turn it green and if it is not done I turn it red. The data in the cells and the color is very dynamic so I dont see how I can make this work based on hardcoding this in the cellbackgroundPaint event......

Sorry if I am being silly about this and overlooking the obvious I just dont seem to understand.....

CellBackgroundPaint event. You will be given a graphics object which you can draw into, and a reference to the cell by row & column. It would be a good idea to store in a hidden column which color to draw it as, or something of the sorts. Long story short:

if column = 0 then
  if row = 0 then
    g.forecolor = &cFF0000
    g.fillrect 0,0,g.width,g.height
  elseif row = 1 then
    g.forecolor = &c00FF00
    g.fillrect 0,0,g.width,g.height
  end
end

Note that you will get CellBackgroundPaint events for every cell, even if they do not contain data or even really exist.
