Problem/Question/Abstract:

How to change the highlight colour in a TDBGrid

Answer:

procedure TForm1.DBGrid1DrawDataCell(Sender: TObject; const Rect: TRect;
  Field: TField; State: TGridDrawState);
begin
  if gdSelected in State then
    DBGrid1.Canvas.Brush.Color := clLime;
  DBGrid1.DefaultDrawDataCell(Rect, Field, State);
end;


or use the OnDrawColumnCell method like this:


procedure TForm1.DBGrid1DrawColumnCell(Sender: TObject; const Rect: TRect;
  DataCol: Integer; Column: TColumn; State: TGridDrawState);
begin
  inherited;
  with (Sender as TDBGrid) do
  begin
    if gdSelected in State then
    begin
      Canvas.Font.Style := [fsBold];
      Canvas.Font.Color := clRed;
      Canvas.Brush.Color := clYellow;
      DefaultDrawColumnCell(Rect, DataCol, Column, State);
    end;
  end;
end;
