data entry on a tab object

[Guest]

I have a form with multiple tab objects. Is there any way to have the name
of a tab, for example Status, be displayed in a different color, say blue, if
any of the fields on the tab have data entered in them? A couple of text box
names on the Status tab are Status_Code and Status_Date to use in an example.


The users of this database would like to be able to glance at the names of
the tabs and if the tab name is highlighted in a different color other than
the default of black, they know to look at the data on the tab.

Is this possible? Thanks!

Tabs will not accept colors. There are other options though, one of them is
described in detail at Martin Green's Access Web Site.

I am having the same problem. I would like to have the tabbed names on my
form somehow indicate or "alert" that there is data on that tab when that
particular tab is not active, rather than having to click on each tab to see
if there is any data contained therein. I visited Martin Green's website,
but the question he addressed was only how to make tabs different colors.
