Coloured ListBox Items

[Dannybe2]

Hi,

I am trying to change the properties of each item in a listbox so that I can have items of different colours.

I cannot seem to find a way of doing this, however I did find the following code, which suggests that I am looking for the attributes object, but it does not exist in my listbox. Is there any collections or anything I can include to my file so that it will exhibit these properties?

Thanks,
Dan

SqlConnection mycn;
SqlDataAdapter myda;
DataSet ds;
String strConn;
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
     if (!IsPostBack)
     {
          strConn="Data Source=localhost;uid=sa;pwd=;Initial Catalog=northwind";
          mycn = new SqlConnection(strConn);
          myda = new SqlDataAdapter ("Select * FROM Products ", mycn);
          ds = new DataSet();
          myda.Fill (ds,"Table");
                    
          for(int i = 0 ;i < ds.Tables[0].Rows.Count - 1;i++)
          {
               listBox1.Items.Add (new ListItem(ds.Tables[0].Rows[i]["UnitPrice"].ToString(),
               ds.Tables[0].Rows[i]["ProductID"].ToString()));
               if(Convert.ToDouble(ds.Tables[0].Rows[i]["UnitPrice"].ToString()) <= 25 )
               {
                    listBox1.Items[i].Attributes.Add("style", "color:red");
               }
               else
               {
                    listBox1.Items[i].Attributes.Add("style", "color:green");
               }
          }
     }
}

Is it in a windows app or is it a web app?
