Conditional formatting of Expressions in a Straight Table

Hi Experts

I am using QlikView 8.5 Developer.

I have a Straight Table with 3 Expressions and 1 Dimension.

I would like to format one of the 3 expressions (i.e. Bold) whenever i make a selection of a certain field (which is not the dimension in the table).

I know that I can format a certain expression using "Custom Format Cells" but it cannot be conditional.

Is there a way to do it via Macro?

* The only solution I found so far is to create 3 straight tables with different formatting and conditional show.

Thanks,

Yaniv

Hi Santosh

Thanks for the reply! It is really helpfull for me.

Instead of using Different Colors, I would like to use Bold font. I guess that I would need to use "Text Format" instead of "Text Color" but I can't find the relevant fucntion.

In your attachment, you used the function blue(), is there a function for Bold?

Thanks,

Yaniv

Hi, Santosh,

I am also trying to get bold in Text Format for an expression, but I cannot make any function work. This is the syntax I tried based on your post, but it doesn't work:

if(company='NEATOT',<b>(),)

The same syntax works with blue in the Text Colour definition but the above does not work. I'm sure I'm missing something.

Can you help, please?

Is there any way to do double underline for specific rows? Is that an option that is available in qlikview?
