Hi all,

I decided I would try to colourize a couple of columns in the display if the size is less than 0.3. I used the wizard and just went with turning size to darkmagenta if size was less than 0.3.

The result was that all entries had a darkmagenta size value, regardless of it's actual value. I tried changing 0.3 to 1. Same result. 1.0, same result. So I went the other way, and tried Greater than 1.0. Everything returned to black, including three entries in the first 38 that were larger than a meg in size.

The field won't accept typing in MB after the number.

I finally deleted the rule based on it could only cost computational cycles and wasn't apparently working.

Ideas?

Thanks in advance, GM
