textbox backcolor

[Guest]

I am trying to set the backcolor of a textbox in Continuous Forms view
uniquely for each record displayed on the form. When I set the color in
OnCurrent Event Handler, the color changes for that field for all records on
the display. How can I change each record individually?

With Conditional Formatting: open the form in design view, select the textbox,
and choose Conditional Formatting from the Format menu option.

This only works in A2000 or later.
