I found the manual pages for coloring lines in a data grid table but
it's not working. I'm pretty sure that the reason is because I'm

Setting the dgText does not bypass FillInData. You can't actually
display any data in the Data Grid without FillInData being called.
What makes you think it is being bypassed?
What columns have you defined in your data grid table and how are you
assigning in the dgText?
To answer your first question, the lines aren't getting colored and I
have a message that's supposed to print to the message box as it goes
by. I went so far as to put a 500 ms delay in this routine (so EVERY
column would wait 1/2 a second just in case the message got overwritten
by a later message.
I'm not sure what you mean exactly by "what columns have you defined".
They are all text fields, (e.g., no icons, images, buttons, etc). I
create the data array by going though the returned data a line at a time
and creating a tab (col) delimited, cr (row) delimited variable then use:
set the dgText of group "searchResults" to theDataA
To clarify your first comment, if I set the entire data array using
dgText, does it call FillInData for every line possible or only the
visible ones? The reason I ask is that one of the things I want to do
with FillInData is to get three more fields that don't come out of the
original query. I have two dates that come out of another table and
have not been able to come up with any SQL query that would return these
fields in the original query. What I want to do is when FillIndata gets
to the first field (key field), I can call another query for that one
record only. As each row is processed, I can get these two dates. This
will not be a processing burden IF I only fill the data that is on the
screen at the time.
The last "field" I need isn't really a field but rather, based on the
value of this field, I need to set the row color. This field I DO have
at the time theDataA array is created.
