Need a little DBGrid help

I have a DBGrid that I need to eliminate the highlight from when an individual cell is being edited. The grid is black and the font is a custom yellow. Looks ugly but that is what the user asked for. Anyway, I have the following code in the program and it works fine but when I start to type new data in a cell it highlights white until you exit the cell. I need to get rid of the white highlight. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong or what I am forgetting to do? Thanks in advance.

procedure TForm1.DBGrid1DrawColumnCell (Sender: TObject; const Rect: TRect; DataCol: Integer; Column: TColumn;
State: TGridDrawState);
begin
if gdFocused in State then
begin
DBGrid1.Canvas.Brush.Color:=clBlack;
DBGrid1.Canvas.Font.Color:=$0080FFFF;
end
else if gdSelected in State then
begin
DBGrid1.Canvas.Brush.Color:=clBlack;
DBGrid1.Canvas.Font.Color:=$0080FFFF;
end
else if gdFixed in State then
begin
DBGrid1.Canvas.Brush.Color:=clBlack;
DBGrid1.Canvas.Font.Color:=$0080FFFF;
end
else
begin
DBGrid1.Canvas.Brush.Color:=clBlack;
DBGrid1.Canvas.Font.Color:=$0080FFFF;
end;
DBGrid1.Canvas.FillRect(Rect);
DBGrid1.DefaultDrawDataCell(Rect,
Column.Field, State);
end;

The white "highlight" is actually the InPlace editor's background.

You will have to override the painting of the
IPE in order to do this...

Thanks...that worked great
