Iam doing for alternative colors i defined Two dataitems as running-count and Mod... and next in Boolean varaible define as [Query1].[Data Item2] = 1 or 0 and [Query1].[Revenue]>=1000 as like this (it's correct or not) and define in condition explorer yes and no purpose two colors(here how to define 4 revenue color) By selecting the list columns body style its applying only the Body and run report it working only for alternative colors Next i defined by using same Boolean condition for revenue like this. For selecting only the Revenue Body and define as yes 4 one color and no for another color? But here it the revenue column also applying only the alternative color condition and it's taking the >=1000 condition... So,i need to display 2 columns have alternative colors and 3rd column >=1000 cell have another color any body pls give me the replay/answer in step wise..... Thank u Basha
