Nice "line printer style" reports
Hi !
We are currently printing lists and would like to have them more readable
by printing all odd lines with a light-gray background and all even lines
black on white.
Since we are using saved reports we are not able to write code to achive
this we only can solve this by using data from the database query (like
record number or something, this we can easily solve).
How could this be solved ?
best regards,
Wolfgang

ReportBuilder does not have any built-in feature to alternate the background
and text color of a detail band. The easiest way to do so would be to place
a colored shape behind every item in the detail band and toggle its
visibility based on the detail band being printed. This of course would
have to be done in Delphi or RAP code.
