From: PsyberFox on 4 Jun 2010 05:36 Hi there, I have read up about conditional formatting and understand the *concept* clearly (I think). However, is it possible to display conditional formatting of a subform in datasheet view on a form? If so, can someone please help me with the VBA coding of this, as I need to have more than 3 (or 4 if default is used) colours? Thank you! W -- The Psyber Fox http://www.psyberconsulting.co.za
From: Allen Browne on 4 Jun 2010 05:48 If you use VBA code to set the properties of the controls (ForColor etc), it will affect all rows of the datasheet, so no: that's not possible. You can use that approach in a report: that's probably your only option if you need more than 3 formats. -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP.
