Colouring alternating lines in Business Objects DeskI

This functionality exists by default in WEBI, but DeskI simply doesn’t have it:

But, as you can see, you can have it, if you really want to. Here is how :
First, we need to create a variable called linenumber, with the function :
=LineNumber() –1
The –1 is because linenumber also counts the header and therefore, starts at 2.
The second variable I create is called Even and the function is :
=Even(<linenumber>)
The rest is easy, create an alerter on that Even variable :

Easy
Enjoy
