Sami,

Would you mind explaining briefly, please, how you do that?

I have a form where I try to highlight rows where some item in the row has 
incomplete data but I have never been able to get it to really look right. My 
method works but it's not as effective as I'd like. I already use a variable 
label but my quick attempt to use an On Row Entry EEP just now to change the 
colour didn't work so I guess that I'm just going about it the wrong way.

Thanks & regards,
Alastair.

  Sami:  I assume you want to change a DBEdit field?  If so, then I agree with 
Larry.  But Labels will evaluate fine per row.  I do that all the time.  If 
it's an editable field, anyway you can get around with putting words around the 
field in a color?  Like maybe defining a form expression:
    vAsterisks = (IFGT( columnname, 0, '  ', '****'))
  and make the field red?

    Sami -- I believe you're out of luck.  In scrolling regions, and even in 
the underlying Windows construct, an item repeated in each band will have the 
same properties.

    If the object in question is text, can you fake it out by having two 
different objects calculated in the variables list, with the (say) red one 
evaluating to NULL when it should display black and the black one evaluating to 
NULL when it should display
