Example
All examples in this topic assume that the grid is bound to the Orders table of the Northwind database, unless stated otherwise.
The following example demonstrates how to change the foreground and background of the current cell.
<Grid xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid">
  <Grid.Resources>

    <Style TargetType="{x:Type xcdg:DataCell}">
      <Setter Property="CurrentForeground">
        <Setter.Value>
          <SolidColorBrush Color="Yellow"/>
        </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
          <Setter Property="CurrentBackground">
            <Setter.Value>
          <SolidColorBrush Color="Orange"/>
        </Setter.Value>
      </Setter>
    </Style>
    <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource x:Key="cvs_orders"
                                    Source="{Binding Source={x:Static Application.Current},
                                                      Path=Orders}"/>
   </Grid.Resources>
   <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="OrdersGrid"
                         ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_orders}}"/>
</Grid>
The following example demonstrates how to provide, through a style, a new ControlTemplate for the DataCells that will display the cells as buttons.
<Grid xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid">
  <Grid.Resources>
    <Style TargetType="{x:Type xcdg:DataCell}">
      <Setter Property="Template">
        <Setter.Value>
          <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type xcdg:DataCell}">
            <Button>
              <Button.Content>
                <ContentPresenter/>
              </Button.Content>
            </Button>
          </ControlTemplate>
        </Setter.Value>
      </Setter>
    </Style>
    <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource x:Key="cvs_orders"
                                    Source="{Binding Source={x:Static Application.Current},
                                                      Path=Orders}"/>
   </Grid.Resources>
   <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="OrdersGrid"
                         ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_orders}}"/>
</Grid>
The following example demonstrates how to provide a new style that will change the foreground color of a cell when its value fails the validation process. It uses the ShippingCostValidationRule custom validation rule defined in the previous example.
<Grid xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid"
      xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Xceed.Wpf.Documentation"> 
  <Grid.Resources>
    <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource x:Key="cvs_orders"
                                    Source="{Binding Source={x:Static Application.Current},
                                                      Path=Orders}"/>
   </Grid.Resources>
   <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="OrdersGrid"
                         ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_orders}}">
      <xcdg:DataGridControl.Resources>

        <Style x:Key="cell_error" TargetType="{x:Type xcdg:DataCell}">
           <Setter Property="Foreground" Value="Red"/>
        </Style>
      </xcdg:DataGridControl.Resources>      

      <xcdg:DataGridControl.Columns>
        <xcdg:Column FieldName="Freight" CellErrorStyle="{StaticResource cell_error}">
           <xcdg:Column.CellValidationRules>
              <local:ShippingCostValidationRule/>
           </xcdg:Column.CellValidationRules>
        </xcdg:Column>
      </xcdg:DataGridControl.Columns>
   </xcdg:DataGridControl>
</Grid>
