Is there a way to shorten this script? (100 graphics and 200 lines of text)

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi William,

This should work:

repeat with x = 1 to 100
  set the backgroundColor of grc ("d" & x) to line 2*x-1 of fld "in"
  set the foregroundColor of grc ("d" & x) to line 2*x of fld "in"
end repeat

Best regards,
