Change record-color of a tableframe in Paradox 8

Ed,
Not really, though you can use calculated fields to achieve some limited effects.
Paradox reports have never really had much support for coloring, primarily because affortable color printers were relatively rare when Paradox was originally written.
You can, though, integrate your Paradox data into the mail merge features of most word-processors or spreadsheets and use the reporting features of those packages to print your data.
Hope this helps...

Ed,
I have done this by using a form instead of a report and then printing it. But in all cases the form was one page in size, I don't know if it would work for other cases.
It is not as slick as using a report, but it may allow you to do the color stuff you want to do.
