field on report is filled in black

[_Bigred]

(Access 2000)


I have created a report based on a query. (the query is based on a table
that contains a lookup list).

When I view or print the report, the field that is (based on the lookup
list) is displayed & printed is filled in black with white text.

Is there anyway for me to get the "fill" color white and the text black. It
just stinks to print out the report and have each "Topic" field end up a
black filled area with white text.

any ideas on how to fix this problem, would be much appreciated,

In the report design window, look at the properties of the control that
displays this value. In particular, look at the font/fore color and
background color. If these appear to be correct, you can try deleting that
control, saving and closing the report, compacting and repairing (work with
a copy to do this), then adding the control back in.

Good luck
