I'm working in Crystal Reports 2008 and I've been tasked with having a box change colors based on the value result of a defined database field.
 
I can apply conditional formatting via Format Field for a data field, but I'm not seeing an option to apply Formula Fields via Format Box.
 
Can I apply conditions directly through the Formula Workshop?  How do I identify my box?
 
Thank you for any help you can provide!

Rather than using a box try using an empty text box.
right click
select format text
select border tab
select background formula and add your formula there.
