Simply set up an IIF statement in the Plot color section
An example

mycolor=IIf(C>O, colorBlue, IIf(C<O,colorRed,colorBlack));

Plot(C, "Close", mycolor, styleCandle );

Ahh, thanks Graham.  That's a definite improvement. But I still 
can't get what I was originally looking for, which is four distinct 
candles based on the price range of the candle in question as it 
relates to the previous candle.  

That's OK.  This makes it better.  Page 91 of the users manual lists 
various variables that can be used in indicator builder to construct 
custom graphs, but I don't understand the complete use of these 
functions so I don't know if they can be used. I'll still keep my 
eyes open for a candlestyle function.  It's not vital, just a 
prefernce of mine.
