From: Lu on 22 Apr 2010 09:49 Hi! Thank you for your hints. I will change this old Databrowser to bBrowser, because the conditions to color the cells changed, which is not possible with the Databrowser. I tried to avoid this because the contextmenu is very long and there are also some buttons which I have to change :-(. At the moment it works like Dirk wrote, but the uvalue is only the aktiv column but I need the value of another column for the aktive column which can change every row. Thanks for your answers. Lu

With these other values and the current value, you can make colors like you want. Dirk -- |
