Hi,
I have a text item in the control block and I want to change the background color at runtime..I used set_item_property but it doesn't working...
I used WHEN-MOUSE-MOVE TRIGGER at the field level and the code
is
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY(':master_blk.department', FOREGROUND_COLOR, 'VISUAL');
'VISUAL' is the visual attribute name and before making the visual attribute I used
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY(':CONTROL.CREATE', FOREGROUND_COLOR, 'red');
but it was also not working..
What do I do?? Please suggest me...

Which Forms version do you use? Note that "MOUSE" triggers won't work in Forms versions newer than 6i (because of web-oriented technology).

Check this thread for some more information.

"Check this thread for some more information". Basically - Java is the keyword.

Unless, of course, you agree to change item background color differently (such as in PRE-TEXT-ITEM trigger).
