Hello,

Try this.

  
    
  public MainWindow()
        {

            InitializeComponent();   

       myGrid.ItemContainerGenerator.StatusChanged += new EventHandler(ItemContainerGenerator_StatusChanged);
           
        }

        void ItemContainerGenerator_StatusChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            var generator = sender as ItemContainerGenerator;
            if (generator.Status == System.Windows.Controls.Primitives.GeneratorStatus.ContainersGenerated)
                (generator.ContainerFromIndex(0) as DataGridRow).Background = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red);
        }

Regards.

You could simplify it a bit if you're looking for a particular index...

private void colorRow(object sender, System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs e)
{
	var row = myDataGrid.ItemContainerGenerator.ContainerFromIndex(10) as DataGridRow;
	row.Background = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red);
}
