Is it possible to tell OIPI to use a certain background color for every other row?

Any suggestions welcome.

I have seen OIPI reports that do this, and I think they use the Append attribute of the ADDTABLE to make it work one row at a time, like this:

Function oipi_test_table_alt(d)

Declare Function Set_Printer, RGB

x=Set_Printer("INIT", "", "", "", "", 4)

backcolor="

backcolor=RGB(192,192,192)

backcolor=RGB(0,0,0)

header=Column 1,Column 2"

table=row 1 col 1,row 1 col 2|row 2 col 1,row 2 col 2|row 3 col 1,row 3 col 2|row 4 col 1,row 4 col 2|row 5 col 1,row 5 col 2"

convert "|" to @FM in table

convert "," to @VM in table

convert "," to @VM in header

* print header with no body yet

x=Set_Printer("ADDTABLE", "2440":@VM:"2880", header, "", RGB(192,128,128), "", "", 7)

For i=1 to 5

x=Set_Printer("ADDTABLE", "2440":@VM:"2880", "", table[i], "", backcolor, 1, 7) 

Next i

x=Set_Printer("TERM", 1)

return 1

Thanks, Tony.

Looks good.
