Hi,

I've spent a while on this and managed to get my poor head 
spinning.....maybe someone can put me straight?

I have a Filemaker database showing a number of bank accounts. 
Information such as names of account, date opened, date closed, balance 
and such like is included for entries as appropriate.

Many of the bank accounts are closed as interest rates become less 
attractive. After a number of years I now have a huge list that makes 
reading the document troublesome. I want to keep all the information for 
tax return/reference purposes but would like to show the list entries as 
'greyed out' once the account is closed so that it is clearer. Can this 
be done with a script?

Might it be better to create a separate layout that excludes closed 
accounts? If so, how would I do that?

It's FMP 11.

Thanks.

Jim
