No, you can't change the color of only part of a field. You could solve this by making it two fields.

Create a formula containing chr(13)

Drop in a text object and just type in the text up to the chr(13), then drop in the chr(13) formula, type in the rest of the text and now you can format each part of the text individually.

craigber: You can color individual text in a formula, I just didn't want to use that solution, the alternative is to embed HTML and use html formatting on the formula.
