Hi,
I've been following this thread with interest, however when fields
virtually fill the portal row, how do you get to see the colored
'RowHighLight' even when the fields are set to be transparent. When the
user click's in a field to enter data, all fields in that row are
activated to white or the layout's background color. I've tried with all
fields and the portal row set to be transparent and the 'RowHighLight'
field is still covered by the normal data entry fields until the user
has completed entering data in that row.
How do you get the portal row to maintain the RowHighLight color in the
fields while the user is entering data ?
Also, I cannot get the 'RowHighLight' field to change color unless I
click on an area not covered by a field. Am I missing something in your
description of the process.

Thank you so much, Tom! That's perfect.
I spent way too much time trying to accomplish it from the parent table and
got stuck in a rut. Now that you've explained it, I see it's quite a bit
easier done in the child table.

assuming the portal TO is called ChildTable AND that you have a
unique ID field in this table, then you need 3 additional fields, 2
of which are globals and can really be in any table but to keep it
simple let's put all 3 in ChildTable:-
