you might want code something like:

void YourCXTPReportRecordDerivedClass::GetItemMetrics(XTP _REPORTRECORDITEM_DRAWARGS* pDrawArgs, XTP_REPORTRECORDITEM_METRICS* pItemMetrics)
{
    ASSERT( (NULL!=pDrawArgs) && (NULL!=pItemMetrics) );
if( (pDrawArgs->pRow->GetIndex() == rowNumberYouWantToColour) && (!pDrawArgs->pItem->IsPreviewItem()) ){
        pItemMetrics->clrBackground = RGB(245, 245, 245);
    }

}


see Codejock Samples-->
ReportSample-->MessageRecord.cpp-->CMessageRecor d::GetItemMetrics

Hope that helps...

Thanks Warren !

But this function is called when the populate() fn of the rpt cnt is called, i.e when the record is initially shown the back color is applied !

my requirement is there are already around 10 records shown and when a user clicks a button .. the 2 row should be colored !

i hope u understand !

Maneesh,

There is only one way to customize colors - override GetItemMetrics or catch corresponding notification - XTP_NM_REPORT_GETITEMMETRICS.

But you can apply that for following classes:
    CXTPReportRecordItem::GetItemMetrics
    CXTPReportRecord::GetItemMetrics
    CXTPReportRow::GetItemMetrics

I can't see what is a problem to call Populate.
May be try to call RedrawControl instead of Populate.
