Dynamic highlights

Hi
I am trying to create dynamic row colors based on the values in one of the columns. It seems the highlight dialog should be able to do this but I can't seem to figure out the necessary code. This is what I am trying to simulate:

For Each row As DataGridItem In dgGrid.Items

Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Select Case [Computers.group]
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  Case 1
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â row.BackColor = Drawing.Color.LightYellow
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Case 2
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â row.BackColor = Drawing.Color.LightPink
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Case 3
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â row.BackColor = Drawing.Color.LightGreen
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â End Select
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Next

Can someone tell me how to do this?
Thanks

Have you tired taking a look at the samples? I believe some of them showed how to highlight certain cells/rows. Take a look at the code for those samples and follow what they did.
