Sample Reports - how to duplicate the functionality 1

[jbull13]

Can anyone explain how to duplicate the yellow or red background row in the "Formula's" report sample? I've looked at the code in the design pane, but I can't figure out how the yellow or red band is inserted into the report.

Thanks,

John

They've got a text object that spans the width of the details section with the following formula for Background on the Border tab:

numbervar deliverydays := length({@For Loop Formula (Crystal Syntax)});

if deliverydays > 10 then
red
else if deliverydays in 6 to 10 then
yellow
else
white

Thanks for the quick, dead on answer. It's a very interesting method they use to create this format. You saved me alot of time.
