I did something similar on my Olympic Bid report where the host city was a different color than the other candidate cities. It was accomplished by having a column with a "1" for host and "0" for non-host. You could add a column to your data for an "Home" flag of 1 or 0 (boolean of true/false might work too). From there, try adding that column to the Color Saturation and configure the min/max colors in the Format area.
Qiuyun Yu,
Thanks you so much for the response. Although it is not the solution I am looking for... I did find it helpful. It gave me another way to present the data that I had not considered.
I was hoping to plot all the "job site addresses" and have the home address polt amoung them and be distinct in some way. I've attached a screen shot with a current view. I'm not sure there is a way to do this... but thanks again for the tip. It has led me in a good direction with this report.

Yes! I had to do some finagling and build a table that had a single column containing both addresses and an ID so i could join it back to the original table. Then I added the flag of 1 or 0. It's working perfectly. what a great end result to my first post. Thanks so much! attached screenshot for your viewing pleasure.
