css isn't necessary.  It can be done in the programming language, asp in
this case.

In the code below, for each value the database returns, the snippet below is
parsed and alternates the row color.  Here is the code in php. I don't know
asp, but the idea should be the same:

*********BEGIN***************
 if ($lastColor == 1) {
  $lastColor = 0;
  } else {
  $lastColor = 1;
  }


  if ($lastColor == 1) {
  echo "<tr bgcolor=\"#B388D9\">";
  } elseif ($lastColor == 0) {
  echo "<tr bgcolor=\"#D5BCE9\">";
  }

*********END*************
