AlternatingBackColor DataGridTableStyle in DataGrid

[kerpal]

Hi all,

1. Could anyone pls clarify the difference between setting the
AlternatingBackColor property in DataGridTableStyle and in DataGrid??

2. How come BackColor and AlternatingBackColor are both associated with the
ODD-numbered rows of the grid as stated in msdn??

Thank you and happy new year!!

Hi,

1) Once you add a tablestyle to your datagrid you have to change the
tablestyles alternatingbackcolor property.

2) ? backcolor even rows alternatingbackcolor odd rows.

Thanks for your reply.
I think I meant to point out that DataGridTableStyle.BackColor and
DataGridTableStyle.AlternatingBackColor affect the odd-numbered rows of the
grid according to msdn.

I guess additional tests are needed to confirm this behaviour/description.
