Thanks for your answer
I am trying to change the forecolor of an area within a field member that is
pasted from another fieldmember.
The lingo I am using is
member("attention").text = "Sorry, you have the name" && member (1,
"pictures").name &&"attached instead of" && member("person1").text
on the screen I would then like it to say ( using my name) "Sorry, you have
the name David Pexton attached instead of John Doe.
I would like David Pexton to be in red.
I think I can leave everything in dot syntax except
member (1, "pictures").name
because that text I would like to change the color on.
I am having a very hard time getting this. If you have any suggestions I
would really appreciate it.
David
