Thanks Dawn & Jan,
I took out the "cl" but still no joy. Then I took out the single hyphen around the word, since it was a variable and it works like a charm. Final code is: Set var vcolor = 'red' (or whatever) Property componentid pen_color .vcolor Thank you both, Paul From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jan Johansen Sent: Monday, October 13, 2008 3:57 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Property Command Syntax for Report "Lines" Dawn, That's what it was! I was trying to remember if it was like HTML colors like ff0000 or something like that.

I have tried: Property componetid color 'clred' Property componetid pen_color 'clred' Any suggestions? Thanks, Paul Buckley
