Can you do what you need with the DynamicBackColor property?

If the code you posted for setting the DynamicBackcolor is accurate, the problem
is you don't have the correct number of close-parenthesis.
Depending on the error-handler settings in effect, you may get a message
about an invalid setting for DynamicBackColor, or you get no message at all.
When you have an illegal expression in the Dynamic* properties, it will use
the default values, and you may also notice a dramatic slow-down in the speed
that the grid is displayed.
