1. Multi-select all columns then do a right-click and select Options. 2. Set Active Object to Column Data (on the left) 3. Select Alternating Color (on the right) and then Select Colors. 4. Choose your desired colours. You can also specify alternate on By Field by clicking the check box and choosing the field.

I appreciate the prompt response. I should have said that I mainly work with the text editor and not the GUI. My current program has comments that will be erased if I go into the GUI. Can you tell me how to do the above by going into the text editor. Thank you!!

Search on "alternating color" in this forum and you will find a number of posts. Such formatting is performed in the StyleSheet using the BACKCOLOR attribute. Provide two colors instead of one and voila.
Alright, I really appreciate your help Dan...I do a quick search in the forum. Thanks!

The method I outlined above will change color every time the final BY field in the request changes value. If you need to switch colors on a different BY field, then this is the syntax to use:
