Thanks ;D Angela

There is another way as well.
1)create a Boolean variable with expression " mod(RowNumber(),2)=1 "
2)Go to conditional explorer and select ' yes ' under the boolean variable.
3)Then select the entire report and set the backgroung color as "blue".
This one is simple and works fine...

Suppose you are creating a report with two data items
Customer_Name and Total-sales respectively.

Create two new data items.
1.Dataitem1: Running-count([CUSTOMER_NAME])
2.Dataitem2: Mod([Data Item1],2)

Create a variable :
Boolean [Query1].[Data Item2]=1 or 0

Come to conditional explorer bar, select YES, under
properties select the background color.

Come to conditional explorer bar, select NO, under
properties select the background color.

Save report and run.

Put this in a conditional style:

case
when (RowNumber ()/ 2) = round((RowNumber ()/ 2),0) THEN
1
ELSE 0
end
