Coloring of DBMemo and DBText fields

rbuser

I have a report that uses DBMemo and DBText fields and I'm trying to color
them appropriately. I am putting in DBMemo.Font.Color for letter color and
DBMemo.Color for the background color. I also set Transparent to False.
The colors don't show up when I preview the report. On a different report I
have variable fields that show up in color and it works fine, but I can't
use variables in the current report.

What is the problem here, should I do something different to DBMemo and
DBText fields?

Hi Yelena,

This should work the same way that the TppVariables work. In my testing, I
was able to get the background and text to show up in the assigned colors
using the exact methods you described below. Perhaps try setting the
background color and text color at design time and see if that works first.
Then try changing the colors at runtime. If you still experience this
behavior, please send a small example demonstrating the problem to
support@digital-metaphors.com.
