Default Can you alternate background colors by gridline?

I have a chart where the horizontal axis is dates with the major gridlines
every seven days. To make the chart easier to read I'd like to alternate the
colors of background colors on the chart at each major gridline. Is this
possible? If so, how would I do it?
