Hi Prakash,
You can set a color to a Field in Map using the following syntax...

FNAME DFHMDF POS=(1,5),LENGTH=10, X
ATTRB=(UNPROT,BRT,FSET), X
INITIAL='XXXXXXXXXX',PICIN='X(10)', X
PICOUT='X(10)',COLOR=RED

color Specifies the color to be used for this field. The valid colors are:
BLUE, GREEN, NEUTRAL, PINK, RED, TURQUOISE, YELLOW.

Bye,
Reddy

Hi,

If you want to dynamically change the color of the map fields,you can give color to the field+C

Eg;if you want to make red to a map field 'MSG'.Make sure that your mapset definition contains dsatts option

You can say in the program,

Move DFHRED to MSGC

Naveen

Hi Reddy,

I have tried this , but it doesnt work

FNAME DFHMDF POS=(1,5),LENGTH=10, X
ATTRB=(UNPROT,BRT,FSET), X
INITIAL='XXXXXXXXXX',PICIN='X(10)', X
PICOUT='X(10)',COLOR=RED

It says me warning there is no COLOR keyword during compilation.

Thanks and Regards,
