Individual Cell Background Image

Question

I want to programatically add a background image to individual cells in a datagridview for easy identification, prefirably in the right bottom corner of the cell.

This is my guess.

Private Sub dgv_CellFormatting(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellFormattingEventArgs) Handles dgvMacroVenceInv.CellFormatting
        For i As Integer = 0 To Me.dgv.Rows.Count - 1
            If Me.dgv.Rows(i).Cells("001").Value > 0 Then
'CODE FOR CELL BACKGROUND IMAGE
            End If
        Next
    End Sub

Please help!!

Using Visual Studio 2005 with .Net 2.0.

But I don't think it is possible to place the image in just a portion of the cell.

Answer 3

Then you probably need to do your own painting.

Would something like this work:

NOTE: This is in C# so you would need to rewrite for VB.
