I have more than 3 different choices, ( ab, cd, ef, ghij, kl).  They   
   are also aphanumeric, (.01 ab, 6 cd, .50 ef, 8 ghij),etc.  The numbers   
   may range from .01 to 8.0.  The letters will always remain the same. I   
   would like to change the color of all the ab entries to a specific   
   background color, regardless of the number range, and a different   
   selected color for the other alpha entries.  If this is possible,   
   could I also obtain a sum total of all the numbers ony with the ab,   
   then with the cd,and each of the alphanumeric sets?  How to get   
   started?  Thanks.
