SAP ALV row colour change and making each individual row a different color

The follow program demonstrates how to change the colour of individual rows of an ALV grid. Changes required from a basic ALV grid include adding a new field to ALV grid data table(it_ekko), Populating this field with color attribute and adding an entry to layout control table.
