reading cellbackcolor problem in flexgrid

[pvmurphy]

I’m having problems reading the CellBackColor of a flexgrid in certain situations.

If I’m using the click event on the grid, I am able to read the color
ex. If MSFlexGrid1.CellBackColor = vbRed Then
‘this will return true if the cell clicked is red

However when I try to reference by a certain row and column, it always returns false and the CellBackColor is always 0.
With MSFlexGrid2
.Row = 1
.Col = 0
if .CellBackColor = vbRed then
‘this is always returning false

Any ideas on how to do this?

Thanks in advance,

Jim

For some reason my machine was not recognizing vbYellow as a color? I changed it to vbRed and it's working fine. Thanks,
