How Do I Change the BackColor for DataGridView Cells?

[TC]

I can't figure out how to change the background color for cells in a
DataGridView. I've tried the obvious, but it doesn't seem to work:

MyDataGridView.Item(1, 1).Style.BackColor = Drawing.Color.Red

Any suggestions?

Cor,

Thank you. The critical piece of information I was missing is that
cell formatting should occur in the DataGridView's CellFormatting
event.
