playing with colors

[inbal]

I have a long list af activitys from different projects.
my DB gives me a form with all activitys by date (i get the form by preesing the date in the calendar).
however, i want each row to be in a different color according to its project
(i have 7 different projects)
is it possible?

not seven

you can use conditional formatting, but that will give you a maximum of 4 display formats in a continuous form.

why not put a combo box at the top, and filter the bottom form depending on which project has been selected - this would probably be lcearer to see anyway - and then you can total/count columns in the filtered data, to give meaningful information

i have a combo for the project,
the events r in order by the time they start.
i wanted different colores because that is what we have in the calender we work with today and its very comfortable to work with.
so i wanted somthing similar.
