Hi, I hope someone can help.

My constant sum question has 27 rows. I can't break up it because I need sum of all for validation. Is there a way to add colour or bold or similar to alternating rows to help respondents read clearly and avoid entering data in the wrong row? I see how to do that with rich text format for each indicator, but not for the answer box. I don't know java script or html unfortunately.

Any and all suggestions welcome - thanks

Use CSS to assign a background color to the ReadableAlt class. For example, add this html to your CS question text:
```
<style>
.Skin .CS .VRTL li.ReadableAlt {background-color:#EEE}
</style>
```
