This can also be achieved without cutting a line of code via Client Access
as follows:
Changing Source Colour in SEU
If you are using the IBM Client Access emulator, you can
program the keyboard to enter the colors. Here's how
(these directions are specifically for Client Access
Express, but I think they will work in a similar way for
all of the IBM emulators).
1) Choose menu option Assist==>Keyboard Setup.
2) Click User-Defined on the dialogue box.3) Click the Customize button.
4) Click on a keyboard key (let's use W).
5) Choose a key combination to enter the hex codes. Example:
a) Next to Ctrl, key "apl 26" (no quotes)
Ctl+W will insert a white underline hex byte
b) Next to Alt, key "apl 22" (no quotes)
Alt+W will insert a white hex byte
c) Next to CtrlShift, key "apl 23" (no quotes)
Ctl+Shft+W will insert a white reverse-image hex byte
6) For each of the colors desired, choose a different key
(the first letter of each color works nicely) and enter the
hex codes for that color. Here is a table of hex codes (in
RPG constants format!).
D cBLU C CONST(X'3A')
D cGRN C CONST(X'20')
D cPNK C CONST(X'38')
D cRED C CONST(X'28')
D cTRQ C CONST(X'30')
D cWHT C CONST(X'22')
D cYLW C CONST(X'32')
D cBLU_RI C CONST(X'3B')
D cGRN_RI C CONST(X'21')
D cPNK_RI C CONST(X'39')
D cRED_RI C CONST(X'29')
D cTRQ_RI C CONST(X'31')
D cWHT_RI C CONST(X'23')
D cYLW_RI C CONST(X'33')
D cBLU_UL C CONST(X'3E')
D cGRN_UL C CONST(X'24')
D cPNK_UL C CONST(X'3C')
D cRED_UL C CONST(X'2C')
D cTRQ_UL C CONST(X'34')
D cWHT_UL C CONST(X'26')
D cYLW_UL C CONST(X'36')
7) Choose File==>Save to update the keyboard profile.
Note that you can also use this trick to highlight comments
in different colors (even within the same line) and you can
update object and member descriptions in PDM with these
colors. We even use different colors to mark different
members as to their status (e.g., blue=member needs to be
updated, turquoise=member needs to be tested, pink=problem
with code change, etc.).
Cheers, Peter

To get this to work properly one should execute the OVRDBF (QRPGSRC or
QRPglesrc) then Delete the overide. Call the RPG color pgm. Then, press
Shift F7 or F8 working with the source member inside of SEU. Presto! This is
pretty easy from an entry level programmer...who can't find work.
