Setting Color

I would add that the browse line must have room for the extra codes, 
because it will include them in the 80 characters but will not add any 
width for them in the display.  So if your line of data is tight, it 
might drop things off the end.

I have done this and struggled with this issue in past.  But it does 
look great to make things a different color in a browse.

This would make it more apparent that the order has not been invoiced.  All lookups are based on the order # so that even it #3 is selected, records appear in item # sequence as the invoice # field is blank.
