Can I use HTML code to change the text color of a date/time field. I have a requirement to change the color of a date in a date only field based on if that expiration date is expired.

I was able to create a text field on the form with a calculated field, that when the expiration date is less than today's date a text field changes from Service active to Service Expired. Works fine. But client wants something else. Instead of another field doing the alert, they want the color of the expiration date to turn red.

I played with some of my old 4.0 and 2011 Java code for a few hours and got "Style" errors. Someone suggested html code for the field but I'm wondering how I could do that.
