Be sure to assign a variable before while (reader.Read()) otherwise it will and error. Then close the data reader once you are finished using it. Like so:

 using (MySqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader())    
    {

    int retrievedValue = 0;

          while (reader.Read())
          {
                retrievedValue = (int)reader.GetValue(0);
                if (retrievedValue == 0)
                {

                    GridView View2 = sender as GridView;
                                    e.Appearance.BackColor = Color.Green;
                                    e.Appearance.BackColor2 = Color.ForestGreen;
                }
                else if (retrievedValue == 1)
                {

                    GridView View2 = sender as GridView;
                                    e.Appearance.BackColor = Color.Red;
                                    e.Appearance.BackColor2 = Color.ForestGreen;
                }
          }//and so on...
          reader.Close();
    }

I hope this is was you're looking for.
