The following 2 script steps work:

profession= Case ( PatternCount ( Profession;"¶" ) > 0; TextStyleAdd (Profession ; Bold );

TextStyleRemove (Profession ; Bold ) )

profession= Case ( PatternCount ( Profession;"¶" ) > 0; TextColor (Profession; RGB( 0 ; 0 ;255));

TextColor(Profession; RGB (187 ; 0 ; 0 )))

However, when I try to combine TextStyleAdd with TextColor into a calculation field, it doesn't work. It changes the text to Bold, but it doesn't color it. I've tried various combinations, including 2 case statements, '&' and '+' to no avail. I don't get a syntax error, it just doesn't do it.

Does anybody know what the correct syntax is to apply Bold and Color, and the default side to be 'no Bold and black'?

Is this for auto-entry into the same field?

no, its into a calc field (type of text).

Then you don't need to remove the bold style when the condition is false. The syntax can be:

Case ( test ;

TextColor ( TextStyleAdd ( text ; Bold ) ; RGB ( 155 ; 0 ; 0 ) ) ;

TextColor ( text ; RGB ( 0 ; 0 ; 180 ) )

)

Does anybody know what the correct syntax is to apply Bold and Color, and the default side to be 'no Bold and black'?

If "profession" field is always no bold and black:

Case (

PatternCount ( profession; ¶ ) > 0; TextStyleAdd (TextColor (profession; RGB( 0 ; 0 ;255)) ; Bold );

profession

)
