Re: [MSAccessProfessionals] Change background color

You can use Conditional Formatting with "Expression Is" testing the combo, or code in the format event of the section containing the textbox.

Subject: Re: [MSAccessProfessionals] Change background color

 

 

I am using equation this in the source field to change a text box on a Report based on a selection in a previous form

 

=IIf([Forms]![f_PremCollFormSetup]![cboNewPlan]=1,"X","")

 

It work fine, but rather than an X in the text box, I would rather turn the background of the box black so it stand out more.

 

I have not been able to figure out how to change the background property of a text box.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

 

Bill
