I am drilling down from a text in a HEADING.
The heading BACKCOLOR is navy and the text COLOR is white.
In HTML everything is fine.
However when output is EXCEL, the color of the text is automatically set to blue by EXCEL.
How can I set the color of the hyperlink in EXCEL to white?

Hello Danny,

This piece works fine for me. Color remains as coded. WebFOCUS version 8.1 and Excel 2007.

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
DEALER_COST
BY COUNTRY
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT EXL2K
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=N1, FOCEXEC=carsample(COUNTRY),COLOR=WHITE, BACKCOLOR=NAVY, $
ENDSTYLE
END

TYPE=TITLE,
HEADING worked the same way...

Yes... but see this:

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM SALES BY COUNTRY
HEADING
"DRILL"
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
INCLUDE=ENDEFLT,$
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=COUNTRY, COLOR=WHITE, BACKCOLOR=NAVY, FOCEXEC=DD, $
TYPE=HEADING, JUSTIFY=CENTER, OBJECT=TEXT, ITEM=1, COLOR=WHITE, BACKCOLOR=NAVY, FOCEXEC=DD, $
ENDSTYLE
END

Apparently, the included style overrides the local HEADING BACKCOLOR definition.
Aaaaarrrgh!

quote:

OBJECT=TEXT, ITEM=1,

This is the culprit. Not the Stylesheet. If I remove this Object and Item then It is working fine.

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM SALES BY COUNTRY
HEADING
"DRILL"
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT EXL2K
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
INCLUDE=ENDEFLT,$
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=COUNTRY, COLOR=WHITE, BACKCOLOR=NAVY, FOCEXEC=DD, $
TYPE=HEADING, JUSTIFY=CENTER, COLOR=WHITE, BACKCOLOR=NAVY, FOCEXEC=DD, $
ENDSTYLE
END
 

Thanks Ram.
However, I need the OBJECT and ITEM because my HEADING has many different objects and I want to drill from only one of them.
I'll probably open a case if my customer insists...
