Re: Change the color of all or part of a subfile line

Hi Jerry
I must admit - the only color combination that don't @($$ me off or make me squint are
White characters on black
White characters on (dark) blue
Most of the dark colors for the characters on white

The problem is when colors are used, and I have "set" the colors, these new colors come out completely different - and sometimes NOT seen
So in answer to what's been suggested - my own personal preference (being selfish) please don't

I hear what you and Alan are saying. I'm not color blind, but we had a secretary/clerk that found out she could change the colors. Every time I (or anyone) had to work on her PC we had to set it back to the defaults.
Being open minded about it, maybe something like this might be good for a color blind person (she wasn't), but hers was just toooo garish and glaring.
Of course, when I got through, she had to reset her preferences.

Don't forget that users can also change the colors on in iSeries Access.
We have a color standard for screens, But what does it matter when one users
screen is purple and another one is blue, and another is.......
