I need to create a slide show that will scroll text, almost like a Power Point presentation, but with several hundred names. These names would represent different levels of customers, so I would like to color code the display based on the data field. I'm using FM 5.5 on Windows XP; anyone ever done this?

I suppose you could create a script that would go to a list view and loop through the records. Just insert Pause / Resume Script and Refresh Window screen step at each record iteration, and be sure to specify a time delay at the pause resume script step.
