I would like to change the font color when naming my
queries in the Queries tab to coordinate queries. This
way I can relate complex queries to each other by color
code, and also link the multiple queries to a final
reportbased on these queries Can this be done?
 
I've never heard of changing the colors, but you can use
Groups,
to keep track of which queries are related to each other.
 
How does that work? I've never done this. Thanks

On the left side of the database container, I don't know
what that pane is called, but it's where you see the icons
labeled "table", "queries", etc, is a bar called "Groups".
Just grab that, and move it up, so you've got room
underneath it, right click to bring up the right-click menu,
and create a new group. Give the group a name, and then
drag what ever tables or queries you want into that group.
You are only dragging a copy of the name, so it doesn't help
when you're looking at the whole list, trying to figure out
what goes with what (I use the properties field for that,
and sometimes even sort by property) but it will help you
know all the objects that belong together, if you've dragged
them into the same group.
