is this possible? (crystal reports for VS.NET)
this is what I have found so far: Thread676-114148

has anyone found a work-around to this?
thanks! Daren J. Lahey

It is easy to shade every second line in a main report but I would take Ken's word that this is not possible in a crosstab report.

Unless you make a manual crosstab report in the main report (ie. don't use the crosstab wizard). This is more complicated but is the only way I do those types of reports. Jim Broadbent

in a simple report is there a better way than:

[basic syntax]

if (((RecordNumber/2) - Int((RecordNumber/2))) > 0 ) then
formula = crWhite
else
formula = crSilver
end if

??

That's the right idea. But you could just use Remainder.

If Remainder(RecordNumber,2) = 0 Then crSilver Else NoColor
