Also make sure that you pre-define that Var before it runs or it will fail. I always do this in REPORT - BEFORE GENERATE EPP SET VAR vCounter INTEGER = 0 RETURN Also set rectangle to Parentheight and Parentwidth Victor Timmons Tiz's Door Sales, Inc Visit us at www.tizdoors.com <http://www.tizdoors.com/> P Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail

Here's the directions that I have: 1. Locate a rectangle over the entire detail row, componentID of "ZebraRectangle". Make a fill color of White and line color of White 2. On the detail band before generate eep: IF vCounter = 0 THEN SET VAR vCounter = 1 PROPERTY ZebraRectangle BRUSH_COLOR 'LIGHT GRAY' ELSE SET VAR vCounter = 0 PROPERTY ZebraRectangle BRUSH_COLOR 'WHITE' ENDIF Karen i have a report and I want to print the detail lines with a "zebra" stripe pattern, in a color of my choice. How to do this is obvious for forms, but I haven't sorted out yet how to do this on a report. I suppose it will also be something simple...... Any help would be welcome... Luc delcoigne
