Syntax:

ColorSet (color number, foreground color, background color)

Parameters:

color number – The color number in the Application Color repository.

foreground color – A string representing the ARGB value in hex code for the foreground color.

Returns:

Logical.

The function will return False if an error occurs. For example:

• The color number is zero or does not exist in the table.

• The foreground or background color values are illegal.

Note:

The color file will not be updated.

The change will affect the display forms only. It will not change the color of output reports.

The Alpha value will affect mobile devices only.

After the update of a color, the current form and subforms and their controls will be refreshed and any usage of this color will be changed.

Parent programs, child tasks, and phantom tasks will not be refreshed, so they might be seen with the old color (and might be changed later on due to internal refresh).

This is a client-side function that is available for Online and Rich Client tasks. If executed in a RIA Batch task, no change will be seen on the client side.
