Does anybody know of any examples on how to set both the row colour and the
alternate row colour of a datagrid in code?

I need to do this at runtime, probably in the page load event or something
similar.

The custom is to do it in RowDataBound event although RowCreated or
PreRender can be used as well.

Here is an example:

protected void myGrid_RowDataBound(object sender,
GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
switch (e.Row.RowState)
{
case DataControlRowState.Normal:
e.Row.BackColor = Color.Blue;
break;
case DataControlRowState.Alternate:
e.Row.BackColor = Color.Green;
break;
case DataControlRowState.Selected:
e.Row.BackColor = Color.Red;
break;
}
}
}
