[SOLVED] Styling with Report Painter in App Studio

All,

In the Report Painter in App Studio, I want to style the whitespace under the column headings in a report to a different color. How do you style the whitespace under the column headings?

I think that's done using the BORDERS. Go to the Report Tab, Scope Title, click Boders/Grid and pick the color you want like below:

TABLE FILE CAR
BY  CAR.ORIGIN.COUNTRY
BY  CAR.COMP.CAR
BY  CAR.CARREC.MODEL
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE SET ASNAMES ON
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLEMBEDIMG ON
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
     INCLUDE = IBFS:/EDA/EDASERVE/_EDAHOME/ETC/warm.sty,
$
TYPE=TITLE,
     BORDER-BOTTOM=HEAVY,
     BORDER-BOTTOM-COLOR='RED',
$
ENDSTYLE
END

BabakNYC,

Thanks for the reply. That only colors the border. I want to color the whitespace like in between the border.

"BACKCOLOR" is what I need, but how do you refer to it in the Report Painter of App Studio?

In App Studio, click the Report Tab and look to the right for the font name, size and to the right of that is the Text Color and Backcolor. Their icons look like a bunch of colored boxes. The one with a big T is text color and to the right of that is the background color.

Ah ha...I see it...thanks. I didn't look extensively enough for it. I'm use to coding in the FOCUS language. I had ended up going into the code in the editor and adding it myself. Thanks for pointing out though.
