Make sure they are as contrasting as possible to highlight at a glance where the bookings change. This of course will depend on how many different types you are using as opposed to just the internal vs external. If your not using any type designation then you could start using them....1 for science, 1 for english, 1 for history, etc.</div> <div> </div> <div>If they do not want to use different types then you could try writing a little custom php to change the color of each entry as it is written out to the table.</div> <div> </div> <div>Randy</div> <div> </div> <BLOCKQUOTE id=replyBlockquote style="PADDING-LEFT: 8px; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 8px; BORDER-LEFT: blue 2px solid; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: verdana" webmail="1"> <DIV id=wmQuoteWrapper>-------- Original Message --------<BR>Subject: Re: [MRBS-general] Add asterisk to indicate repeat bookings<BR>From: "Campbell Morrison" <<a href="mailto:cam...@gm...">cam...@gm...</a>><BR>Date: Wed, September 29, 2010 8:11 am<BR>To: "'General purpose list (support/developers/users)'"<BR><<a href="mailto:mrb...@li...">mrb...@li...</a>><BR><BR>Yes - I think you will just have to convince them that if they see blank<BR>space then they just have to look up until they see some text.
