I have a phonebook where I want to fill every other line with a gray
background color. Is there any way to do this wheen the report is loaded?

Make sure the BackStyle of each control is Transparent.

Code the Detail Format event:

If Me.Section(0).BackColor = vbWhite Then
Me.Section(0).BackColor = 12632256 ' gray
Else
Me.Section(0).BackColor = vbWhite
End If

====
If you wish each page to start with a white row, code the Page Header
Format event:

Me.Detail.BackColor = 12632256 'Reset color to Grey so that the
first detail line will become white

Change the colors as needed.
