From code in the main form's module:

Me.subform.Form.label.BackColor = colorcode
 
Marshall, are your use of subform and form litteral or do I put the name of
the forms?
 
in my meta-language, I use lowercase words for things you
need to replace and capitalized words for literal names.

Replace the "subform" with the name of the subform
**control** on the mainform. Form is the name of the
built-in property that returns the form object being
displayed in the subform control.
