Follow-up Q, if I may. What set of colors are available for this use in reports?
Is that RGB/specific value setting available? Thanks, Steve -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of A.

Example: -- Start here -- Before Generate Custom EEP for Detail and/or Appropriate Band IF vDeterminingValue NOT LIKE '%001' THEN PROPERTY HiddenControlCompID VALUE .vPreviousValue PROPERTY HiddenControlCompID VISIBLE 'TRUE' PROPERTY HiddenControlCompID FONT_COLOR 'GREEN' ELSE PROPERTY HiddenControlCompID VISIBLE 'FALSE' ENDIF RETURN -- End here Based on your specific circumstances, you may update the order of PROPERTY commands and actual variable names accordingly. Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
