GridView Formatting

[sck10]

Hello,

How do you change the color of the gridlines in the GridView control? I
have tried changing the following, but only the border changes to black, but
the grid lines stay a light gray:

BorderColor="#000000" BorderStyle="Solid"
RowStyle-BorderColor="#000000" RowStyle-BorderStyle="Solid"
GridLines="Both">

Any help would be appreciated.

BorderColor=???

Hi Sck10,

As for the setting GridLine's color in asp.net2 GridView Control, I think
sck10 is suggestion is exactly the correct means. I've also test on my
side. This works when we set the GridView's GridLine = Both and changing
the BorderColor property will make the gridlines' color also change. You
may have a try to see wheher it works. Thanks.

Thanks Steven,

I had already tried what was suggested, but my gridlines are still light
gray. I am using the following, where the border color is set to "Green",
but the grid lines are still light gray.

<asp:GridView ID="gvWebDocList" Runat="server" DataSourceID="dsWebDocList"
AutoGenerateColumns="False" AllowPaging="True" PageSize="40"
BorderColor="#00cc00"
GridLines="Both">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField HeaderText="Doc Group" DataField="strWebDocGroup" />
<asp:BoundField HeaderText="Doc Type" DataField="strWebDocType" />
<asp:HyperLinkField HeaderText="Title" DataTextField="strWebAddress"
DataNavigateUrlFields="strWebAddress" />
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>

===============================

seems haven"t any difference. Have you tried creating a new aspx page or
even a new project on some other machines to see whether the problem still
remain? Currently I also haven't any good idea on this.

In addition, I think you can also have a look in the Whidbey beat
newsgroup to see whether there're any clues:
