changing text color question

I am a beginner using Filemaker 7. I have a database with several text fields and one value list per record. I am wondering if there is a way to change the color of all the field text depending on what item is chosen from the value list?

For example, I want item 1 in the value list to be red (is there even a way to make items in a value list different colors?) and when I select it all the text for that particular record changes to red. Then I want all the other items to be different colors and change their text accordingly.

Or is there an easier way to do this differently?

Thanks.

Look attachment.

I did it by script, but other way is do it by Calculation fields, only at that case you must have for each field his calculation_field.
