I used the below in in Custom calculation script.

var indicator = this.getField("STP-1").value; {

if (indicator=="Absent")

event.target.fillColor = color.green;

else if (indicator=="Tardy")

event.target.fillColor = color.green;

else if (indicator=="Exited")

event.target.fillColor = color.red;

else if (indicator=="Recycle")

event.target.fillColor = color.yellow;

else

event.target.fillColor = color.transparent;

event.target.fontColor = color.transparent;}

It is an attendance sheet, if the partictpant is present for the fist half of the day and not there for the aftrenoon and I select "absent" for the afternoon then I want partcipant field green to match the absent from thr dropdown list. The same if they recycle or exited.

I'm sorry, but you didn't really answer my question. In your examples all the options are the same. The question is what should happen if they are not the same.
