Now that I m drawing my grid to change  row colors I
lost my default field formats . Example How do I
format my Fields columns to currency !

Thanks Dean

You can use the Format function:

  s := Format('%n', [MyCurrencyValue]); // "1,234,567.00"

  s := Format('%m', [MyCurrencyValue]); // "$1,234,567.00"

After you change your canvas or font colors just call
TDBGrid.DefaultDrawColumnCell and the TDBGrid should handle all that for
you.
