For example, suppose the following string text is entered, and is assigned the
color
Red
using the
Color Selection
menu:
“Red” C1 “Green”
When the string is displayed, the literal text Red would be displayed in red.
The code
C1
would then change the remainder of the the string to green.
That is, the literal text Green would be displayed in green.
A formula indicator (%) can be used for the color code number. Thus the
color can be set dependent upon a formula result. For example, the code
C
%
5
would use the result of formula 5 as the color number. If the result
were 7, for example, the string color would be changed to black.
Values Out Of Range: If the specified color number is less than 1, the value
1 is used (green). If the specified color number is greater than 8, the value 8
is used (clear).
