Changing text colour depending on calculations res

I have just upgraded to FM7 from 5 and wish to use what I think will change text colour depending on a calculation result.

Here is my example

Case ( days before upgrade due > "0" ; "not due" ; days before upgrade due ≤ "0" ; "now due" ; days before upgrade due ≤ "500" ; "long overdue" )

I would like the result "Not due" to be in red, "overdue" in green and long overdue to be orange but I am not sure how to implement the new Text Colour feature.

Is this possible?

Thanks

The FileMaker onscreen help has a good explanation of how to use the "textcolor function".
