June 18, 200916 yr I have upgraded from FM 9 to FM Pro 10, in a file I have 7 columns, one of which is notes, I would like to color the text in notes to red, in some of the files but not all, when I highlight the text to change the color in the formatting bar box, as long as that box is highlighted the color text shows red, if I click in another field the text shows up as black. The back ground is white. Can someone offer some help
June 18, 200916 yr Hi Beaune, and Welcome to the Forum. Have you read about [color:blue]Conditional Formatting? Can you make a mock up of your file and attach it so that we can see what you are trying to describe. Lee
June 18, 200916 yr Author Lee thank you for your help, I made some screen shots of the file, but dont see how to make an attachment here. I have posted them on my .mac account, here http://gallery.me.com/margrave1#100138 I have several others FM databases that I can change the color in table view and the color works just fine. I have tried to compare what the difference might be in the FM databases, but have not figured it out. All of these were made in FP-7-8-9 Mike
June 18, 200916 yr Author The problem has been solved I went to modify changed one box to a red color, saved it then went back and changed the color to black, and now all the color boxes I had are correct thank for you help Mike
June 18, 200916 yr ... one of which is notes... Can you write here the auto-enter options for that field ?
June 19, 200916 yr Author Daniele This was not an auto entry just one of the names for the Column head, the database looks like this, these are just normal text cells Name-Date-Event-Father-Mother-Where-Notes I am sorry I dont know about auto entries
