How to set cell background based on cell value when datagrid is displayed

[RJ]

I would like to check a datagrid cell value, and change the color of the
cell background, when a datagrid is displayed. I want to do this as early
as possible after / during a page load event. I tried looking into the
DataBinding event of the datagrid, but couldn't see how to get the
individual cells out of the EventArg passed into the DataBinding handler. I
am hoping this can be done in a VB.net code-behind class and not require
editing of the HTML to accomplish this. Thanks for any insights.

Second parameter passed to the event handler has type of
DataGridItemEventArgs. It has property Item which represents a datagrid row.
It has in turn property Cells which is what you are after.
