S Steve Sep 15, 2004 #2 You need to set a Timer event on your form. Change the Timer interval to 1000 (1 second). In the On Timer Event, place the following code; If textboxname.backcolor <> 255 then textboxname.backcolor = 255 else textboxname.backcolor = 16777215 end if Replace textboxname with the name of the text box you want to blink. This will make the background flash red then white every second. Timerintervals are in milliseconds, so 1000 milliseconds = 1 second. Good Luck! Steve.
