I am sure this has been discussed here before. Search the forum...good luck.It is possible using a template, and it has been discussed many times...
The trick is to combine classTyler's conditional <tt>class</tt> technique with a custom named column report template.
Determine a class for the row in the query:
select
          empno
        , ename
        , sal
        , case
            when sal < 1000 then 'low'
            when sal between 1000 and 2000 then 'medium'
            when sal > 2000 then 'high'
          end sal_class
from
          empCreate a custom named column report template, referencing the class in the row template:
<tr class="#SAL_CLASS#"><td>#EMPNO#</td><td>#ENAME#</td><td>#SAL#</td></tr>Then create a style sheet to apply the required backgrounds:
tr.low td { background-color: yellow; }
tr.medium td { background-color: white; }
tr.high td { background-color: red; }
