I have list of records and I want to display only those where field Mail\_read is == 1 in bold.

I can’t use a html formatting because some of the fields contains values from a i18n value list and changing the type to HTML would display the number of the value and not the name.

Any idea how?

I don’t think that this is currently possible without using html. The next version of our [Table-Bean](http://www.servoy-plugins.de) due this week will allow you to do that by offering a rowFontCalculation property, where you can provide a calculation dataprovider that returns a font depending on whatever conditions (just like you can do in Servoy with the rowBGColorCalculation). It will also allow you to provide a calculation for the font color and allows you do all this on a per column basis. So you can actually set the font, the background and foreground color for any single cell (not just the whole row) by calculations.
