I wish to do a grid of sales per quarter by Salesman.
So, layout like this:

SALES PERSON Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4
John 5 6 7 8
Jane 3 2 1 9

There's two things I'd like to do, and let the user choose these options on
a button
1)
If the sales for a quarter are higher than the previous quarter, give the
cell a green background.

2)
There is a target for each quarter. I'd like the background for the cell to
be shaded as a percentage of the target.
For example, lets say Q1 sales were 7,500 and the target was 10,000. I'd
like the background of the Q1 cell to be three quarters green.
Is this even possible?

Thanks
Vayse
 
Hi Vayse,

Yes, this is possible. To achieve this, you have to code a customized
DataGridViewColumn. You can inherit your own column style from this class,
and draw the green color on each cell. Please check the following document
for more information about DataGridView.
