Colored Fields

Featured Replies

I have one field with 3 choices: A M, Noon, and P M.

When A M is selected I would like the field to be one color, If Noon is selected, then a different color; P M would be a 3rd color.

Is this possible? Any ideas will be appreciated.

Conditional formatting is native to later versions of Filemaker, beginning with FileMaker 9. Time to upgrade.

Like the attached?

Well, I think not. It doesn't work. Hence the advantage of using current native features.

My previous post was not addressed to you - I pressed the wrong "Reply" button.

Well, the file was created in version 6, using native techniques and it works for me in version 6

Understood. But it used Windows graphics, not native graphics. I do understand that it would have worked if you had used FileMaker graphics, see attached. I still suggest that for so many reasons, it's really time to upgrade.
