Changing the properties of one line in the detail section of a for

[Guest]

Is there any way to change the properties (such as text color) of one textbox
within one record of the detail section of a continuous form. When I do it,
It changes the color of the text box on all of the records in the detail
section. Somehow I would like to isolate each record and change properties
afterupdate of one of the Records fields. The detail section and the entire
form for that matter is bound to one table. I do use a record counter to
keep the records unique

If I can do this, Is there a way to save those properties to a history table
so when the user query's it it remembers this records color was Red(for
example)

Any help is Very Very much appreciated

Thanks

You can use Conditional Formatting (A2K+) to do that, but
you are limited to three conditions plus the default.

How you would save the color would depend on a lot of things
in your tables, how the color would be specified, and
probably some other details.
