Printing row color

Post by MG_(Guest) » Tue Dec 28, 2004 4:26 pm

This also might be in Version 11. But it would be very nice to be able to create some reports where you can print every other line in reverse graybar. Obviously, this would need to be able to be controlled so it could print 2 lines, 3 lines, etc.____I know of no way al all to create this in version 10+ now. But am I missing something? Can this be simulated somehow?__

You would need two identical record bands. On the second you would add a box whose color would be yellow and omit each of the sides so it colors the band line. Make sure it is totally within the second record band.____The create a calculated field called even with the expression:__MOD(RECNO(),2)=0____On the plain record band add this calculation as a logical field and select print when true.__On the shaded record band add this calculation as a logical field and select print when false.____You should then see alternate shaded lines on the report.____Kathleen__R&R Support
