Hello,

How do I go about changing font color while doing and if statement. I have certain information that I want red and other information purple and then the rest black. I would like to do an if statement. If lateFlag = 'L' then color = 'purple'.

Thanks for the help in advance.

I do this through the stylesheet. Have the default set as black and then add the following:

TYPE=DATA, COLOR=Purple, COLUMN=DIFF, WHEN=lateFlag eq 'L', $
TYPE=DATA, COLOR=Red, COLUMN=DIFF, WHEN=lateFlag eq 'X', $

Kelly,

Check out the conditional styling options available in the STYLESHEET. You can easily do this in the stylesheet using a conditional test (slightly different syntax than in the body of the report) and assign RGB colors to the lines.

Kelly,

Where you have COLUMN=DIFF, replace DIFF with the name of your column.
