RE: Different background in alternative rows

Indeed this can be done with the help of alerters but we need to use some local variables and functions in it.. The procedure is:

- create a local variable evenline in which u need to use the formula called
Even(LineNumber()).
( here LineNumber() function returns the number of current line in the block
and Even(LineNumber()) returns 1 for a even line number and returns 0 for a odd line number.

-- Now create an alerter and go to the conditions tab and put the localvariable's name evenline in the variable to compare field.
and then for operator 1 choose
then for value box type 1
then in the results box do the formatting stuff u needed

-- I think this would help u...
