Dim objQFE As New QuikFormsEngine        
Dim fieldProperties As New FieldPropertiesInBulkByFieldName() With {.FieldName = "FName", .FieldBackgroundColor = "#CCC"}
objQFE.SetFieldPropertyByFieldName(fieldProperties)

Dim fieldProperties2 As New FieldPropertiesInBulkByFieldName() With {.FieldName = "Addr123", .FieldCalcOverride = True}
objQFE.SetFieldPropertyByFieldName(fieldProperties2)


Method overloads

Even though we strongly suggest using the method described above, the QuikFormsEngine includes old overloads for legacy implementations. The overloads are listed below and the idea is that the field properties are passed in as parameters instead of within a wrapper class.
