Failing to print fill colour of conditional formatting

[Guest]

I have recently designed a report in Access 2003. I have utilised conditional
formatting in order to change the fill (background) colour of certain fields.
The conditional formatting was applied by use of the conditional formatting
wizard (not manually by coding).

I found that the conditional formatting appears correctly when previewed
on-screen, however, the fill colour fails to print.

I have tried changing the text colour via conditional formatting and this is
successfully printed and previewed.

The fill colour is a very important aspect of my report and would be a
valuable part of my exam coursework if I could achieve this.

Are there any patches, hacks or workarounds to fix this problem in Access
2003? I have searched on the internet, and have found users who also
experienced this problem, but I did not find an solutions.

I would be most grateful and appreciative for any advice and help. Thank you
for your support.

CF is not requrired for Reports as you can simply use the Format event of
the relevant section to modify the desired properties.
