Data field with different font colors

Benni · April 5, 2013

Hello

i get from my datasource two colums "space" and "name" (both type String). 
 
Now i want in the report one data field like: 
BirtStr.concat(dataSetRow["space"],dataSetRow["name"]) 
 
Is it possible to make dataSetRow["space"] in another font color? 
 
E.g. dataSetRow["space"] should be white and dataSetRow["name"] should be black? 
 
Or is there another option to make two different font colors? <a class='bbc_url' href='http://www.birt-exchange.org/org/forum/public/style_emoticons/'>http://www.birt-exchange.org/org/forum/public/style_emoticons/</a><#EMO_DIR#>/confused.gif 
 
 
Thanks and Regards

Hi, 
 
If it is a static requirement then you can simply select the column then click on properties -> General -> Background color and choose the color you want.

Good Day
An easy way to do this is to use a Text Report Item set to HTML they you can do the following:
 <value-of> row["CONTACTFIRSTNAME"] </value-of> <value-of> row["CONTACTLASTNAME"] </value-of> 

This will allow you to show each field with a different color in the same report column.
