using FORMAT ON/OFF statement.... for example ,

 FORMAT COLOR col_heading ON INTENSIFIED ON INVERSE ON.
 write 'hi how are you'.
 FORMAT RESET.

this statement will format the output of the write statement in the color grey-blue i.e. color of COL_HEADING.

note:- if you specify the format using the write statement then the format in write statement will have the priority. see below:

 FORMAT COLOR col_heading ON INTENSIFIED ON INVERSE ON.
 write 'hi how are you'. COLOR col_total .
 FORMAT RESET.

this will give output in yellow color and format in the FORMAT statement will not work as explained below.
