In the example, I would look at this particular code.

Imports DevExpress.XtraGrid.Views.Grid

Private Sub GridView1_RowStyle(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As DevExpress.XtraGrid.Views.Grid.RowStyleEventArgs) Handles GridView1.RowStyle
    Dim View As GridView = sender
    If (e.RowHandle >= 0) Then
        Dim category As String = View.GetRowCellDisplayText(e.RowHandle, View.Columns("Category"))
        If category = "Beverages" Then
            e.Appearance.BackColor = Color.Salmon
            e.Appearance.BackColor2 = Color.SeaShell
        End If
    End If
End Sub

This code seemed to help the situation of helping the programming change the backcolor of two categoris of Bevarage.

Please comment if I made a mistake
