c#

I'd like to iterate through a certain set of fields in a report (rpt) file and, for the sake of argument, make them have a blue background. I'd like to do this for many files and on a conditional basis. The ReportDocument class seems like the way to go, but I don't see any Fields or anything like that in the API.

Is there a way to do this via C#?
