Record lines grey and white

Post by Sergio_(Guest) » Thu May 06, 2004 6:09 pm

Hi Gang,____Trying to enable the grey/white effect when printing reports. I hope this is clear, check my example below:____Title Report__Header 1__Header 2__-------Header Line-----------------__Record 1 <--- White__Record 2 <--- Grey__Record 3 <--- White__Record 4 <--- Grey__...____Total records: 3 <-- Summary line____The grey/white effect makes it easier for reader.____Thanks...__Sergio

You need to create two indentical band lines.__On one of them add a box and set its color to yellow.____Then create a calculated field with the expression:__MOD(RECNO(),2)=0____The select each of these line. For the first set the calc field as the logical field to control printing and print when true.__For the second line do the same but using print when false.____This should give you alternate shaded bands.____Kathleen__R&R Support
