Protected Sub OnRowDataBound(sender As Object, e As GridViewRowEventArgs)
   If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow Then
      Dim cell As TableCell = e.Row.Cells(4)
      Dim quantity As String = (cell.Text).ToString

      If quantity < "10000" Then
         cell.BackColor = Color.Red
      End If
      If quantity >= "10000" AndAlso quantity < "50000" Then
         cell.BackColor = Color.Yellow
      End If
      If quantity >= "50000" Then
         cell.BackColor = Color.Orange
      End If
