[CLOSED] Conditional formatting in InfoAssist
Good morning,

Is there a way to apply conditional formatting to an across tab report to highlighting the lowest value on each row in red and the highest in green?

simple report example:

TABLE FILE ibisamp/car
SUM CAR.BODY.SALES
BY CAR.ORIGIN.COUNTRY
ACROSS CAR.COMP.CAR
END

Thanks.

you might have to do some modification to the code. but this works

TYPE=DATA, ACROSSCOLUMN=SHIPPCT, BACKCOLOR=RGB(255 102 102), WHEN=SHIPPCT LE 99.00 ,STYLE=BOLD, $
TYPE=DATA, ACROSSCOLUMN=SHIPPCT, BACKCOLOR=RGB(51 255 51), WHEN=SHIPPCT GT 99.00,STYLE=BOLD, $
TYPE=DATA, STYLE=BOLD, WHEN=ORDER1 EQ 3, $


I tried to do it graphically and after tearing my hair out modified the code

Hi Brian,

There will be different ways to accomplish, but below code should work, or at least put you on track.
SET ASNAMES=ON
TABLE FILE ibisamp/car
SUM SALES
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
ON TABLE HOLD AS HOLD1
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE HOLD1
SUM MAX.SALES AS HIGHESTVALUE 
    MIN.SALES AS LOWESTVALUE  
BY COUNTRY
ON TABLE HOLD AS HOLD2
END
-RUN

JOIN COUNTRY IN HOLD1 TO COUNTRY IN HOLD2

TABLE FILE HOLD1
SUM FST.LOWESTVALUE  NOPRINT
    FST.HIGHESTVALUE NOPRINT
BY COUNTRY

SUM SALES
BY COUNTRY
ACROSS CAR

ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=DATA, ACROSSCOLUMN=SALES, COLOR=RED,   WHEN=SALES EQ C1, $
TYPE=DATA, ACROSSCOLUMN=SALES, COLOR=GREEN, WHEN=SALES EQ C2, $
ENDSTYLE

END

Brian,

The suggestion from our helpful members is using code. Once you edit the report and add code you will not be able to use the GUI Tool.

For the styling within InfoAssist GUI tool try to work with the following to set up the colors you are looking for.

Highlight "field" in the Query pane > Right mouse click > "More" > "Traffic Light Conditions. - there are options within here

Let us know which way works for you.

Kind Regards,

Thank you very much for the responses and apologies for the delay in replying.

I've used InfoAssist completely with no coding following the ideas given by Martin vK.

Many Thanks.
Brian
