I've tried just about everything to make it work but I can't get the bid-ask volume to color differently. I have set the colors differently and chose to make them visible. I have selected Separate Bid/Ask Volume Coloring. I have modified the Global data settings to tick, I have tried both IQFeed and IB, I have selected ignore and disabled Point of Control and Highlight the Value area. What am I missing?

You need Bid volume and Ask volume data for this to work. Information about this is documented here:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_ChartDataFiles.html#BidVolumeAskVolume

IQ Feed does provide this data historically and in real-time. However, be sure to follow the instructions here:

With Interactive Brokers you will only get Bid volume and Ask Volume for data received in real-time.
