    Hi All

    I have an requirement to show the report with full of background color but while printing i have to get a print without those color. The reason is background color shading the data while printing and become ugly.

    Please help me to solve this issue. This is very urgent for me.

    Any help is appreciated

    I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that once a report is rendered, what you see on the screen is what you'll get on paper.

    But, here's a possible workaround:

    Any chance you could create a parameter that says "Printer Friendly? (yes/no)?"

    Then, set the background color option of the relevant objects to the value of the PrinterFriendly parameter: i.e. iif(parameter!PrinterFriendly = "Yes","white","HorribleHotPink").

    A user can then choose to render the report for either onscreen viewing or printing.

    If you have lots of objects that require having their background colors changed, you could leverage custom Code. Check out
