Sometimes it is needed to highlight data cell in Repeater, so that we can clearly differentiate some data against the large number of records being displayed. In the previous article I have discussed how to Highlight or change color of gridview row.

Suppose in case of Employee record we want to highlight prticular Cell where age of the employee is greater than “30”.  We can change the color of the Cell in code behind on this condition by doing some code on “Item Data Bound” Event of Repeater.
In this article I will explain the following points:
1.       Save data to database.
2.       Show data in Repeater.
3.       Highlight Cell based on some condition i.e. Age>30

Implementation:  Let's create a demo website to demonstrate the concept.
Create a database “Test”, Then create one table i.e. Emp_Personal
  
Column Name
Data Type
EmpPer_Id
Int(Primary Key. So set is identity=true)
EmpName
varchar(100)
Age
Int
Address
varchar(500)

Create a stored procedure to save Employee details in sql server database table

create PROCEDURE SaveEmp_SP

                @EmpName  VARCHAR(100),              
                @age   INT,
                @Address VARCHAR(500)

AS
BEGIN
                INSERT INTO dbo.Emp_Personal(EmpName,Age,Address)
                VALUES(@EmpName,@age,@Address)
END

Create another stored procedure to get Employee details to be filled in Repeater Data Control.

CREATE PROCEDURE GetEmp_SP              
AS
BEGIN
                SELECT * FROM dbo.Emp_Personal
END

create the connection string in Webconfig as: 
<connectionStrings>
    <add name="Empcon" connectionString="Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=test;IntegratedSecurity=True"/>
  </connectionStrings>

Asp.Net C# Section
Design Part:

    <div>
<fieldset style="width:370px;">
    <legend><strong>Change Colour of Repeater Cell based on condition</strong></legend>
    <table>

Asp.Net VB Section: 
Design of  the page will be same as in Asp.net C#  section but replace the lines

<asp:Button ID="btnSave" runat="server" Text="Save" onclick="btnSave_Click" />
<asp:Button ID="btnReset" runat="server" Text="Reset" onclick="btnReset_Click" />
with the following lines
<asp:Button ID="btnSave" runat="server" Text="Save"/>
<asp:Button ID="btnReset" runat="server" Text="Reset" />

In the code behind file(e.g. default.aspx.vb) write the code as:
