Question: The standard Delphi-StringGrid can only hold one color for all cells.
How to create an multiple colored Stringgrid ?
Answer:
I's easier than you assumed. You must simply override the DrawCell and manuelly draw some data on the canvas of the Stringgrid-Cell .
feel free to copy and reuse this sweet tiny component....
I hope this article is helpful for you .... for feedback - please rate
