I just tried this. I get a failure with the above syntax, but
success if I substitute "grp" for "bg". That is, this works:
set the textcolor of word 2 of line 2 of fld AA of grp "betDisplayA"
to "green"
This may not work if you aren't on the right card currently, as
"grp" isn't a valid reference if it isn't placed on the current card.
...although it should be noted that you can refer to a group on
another card if you specify the card, e.g. 'field "AA" of group "Foo"
of card "bar"'.
Note the quotes around the color name. Even though they are
constants, the MC docs say color names should always be in quotes,
so that is my habit.
Actually, the color names aren't true constants (that is, they aren't
in the constantNames). They're literals; as with other one-word
literals, you can get away with not quoting them, but as you note
it's not good practice.
