conditional formating using back color

[Guest]

has anyone got a step by step guide on how to format a text cell, or gudie
me on the right direction to a book etc. (new to programming)

trying to highlight cells if they have different status i.e. to scene = Red,
Standby = Green etc. as the inbuild only allows upto 3

Thanks (from a complete novice)

Hi,
just open a form in design view, select textbox you want to apply formatting
and run menu format-conditional formatting - then you can easy define it
