Hi
I have a problem where the user has certain contraints in colour.
I am trying to change all the colours of labels in the database to purple.
Is there any way to declare it once in the database and all label statements will pick up the new colour. Saves me going through every form. Also there are other users who want to use the database with black.
???:rolleyes:
Hi, im working on my school project for A2.
When the user clicks on say; the customer ID dropdown menu, i want the label text on the right of it to get darker (make it more visible). How can i do this?
(i have attached a picture of my form)
thanks, Robin
I have an option group with 4 options and I want them to display traffic light colours when an option is clicked. So if option 4 is clicked it displays red, if option 1 is clicked it displays green, however, once clicked the colours remain, and dont disappear when I click another option and they remain for all records.

Hi,
I'm currently using MS Access 2002.
I use forms to display client info and i would like to know if the following is possible, and if so, how ?
When a clients installation date is older than 6months old (date is in a text box) i would like the form's background to change colour for that paticular client.
eg/ if the clients installation date was 7 months ago, the form's background would change red - but only to that client.
Kinds Regards
Chris

View 3 Replies View RelatedOk what I would like to do is have a switchboard with a number of command buttons on, each button opens to a form with a few fields within them.
Is it possible for the initial switchboard labels to be 'red', then as the related form is opened and populated the switchboard label turns 'amber' and once the form is complete the switchboard label is 'green'. See example piccie attached, to get a better understanding!
This is to enable multiple users to see at a glance the status of various jobs.
If anyone knows how I can go about this or suggest any alternatives, I'm open to suggestion.
Thanks in advance

Friends,
I would like some help with my form.
I would like the following:
If txtname is null (without data), then txtdob font is changed to colour white.
Any help?
Thanks.
...but I'v got a picture and I want to put a red box behind it so the picture looks like it has red borders, the problem is that the box always appears above the picture, I'm sure there must be a way to prioritize them or something but I can't find it!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been working on a database for quite a while now, and i've now given it out for testing, and i've come across a little problem. One of the users is colour blind, and the colour theme i've used throughout this database is causing him problems.
I have a function that can single him out when he logs in, question is, is there a way i can change the font colour for the whole database in one go through code??
I have around 12 forms with many controls and labels, i'm kind of hoping i don't have to name each control and label separately to change the font colour.
Please tell me that there’s some clever piece of code that can change the font colour on a form in one hit…..

Hello,
First please accept my apologies if this has been done before. In the attached database I am going to have a form which is continous what I am looking to do is change the colour of the box which is in the background to the associated colour from the quote table for example
if they choose water then it will look at the TBLQuoteType and change the box colour to the colour which has been assigned to that value.
Hope this explains it ok I will continue to try and figure it out but I thought I could also use your expert knowledge.

Thanks again
Im trying to change the background colour of some fields if the value is null or missing, but I'm not quite sure how to handle the coding. The fields in question are title, given name and surname, and if they are empty I want to change the background colour to highlight to users that they need to collect this information.
Any help that you can provide would be great!
Is it possible to get Access to automatically change the colour in a form field via code etc. My problem is that i would like to easily pick/see any out of date quotations for my customers, so when the quotation date is 30 days old the text changes to red. Any advice would be gratefully received.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHello fellow programmers, I have a tricky one for you. We have decided to split our local City up into different zones. Giving each zone a number and assigning it a colour. I have a form with all the customers who want jobs done in different parts of the city. This form has a text box on it called: Zone - (which has a 3 digit number it it). I want the colour of the text box to change depending on the Zone number, in the continuous Form view. So all the customers living in Zone=111, will have a Red background colour (color), all living in Zone=222 will have a Green background colour. I know conditional formatting through the properties of the Form can be used, but it only allows me to select 3 different situations. I have many more than 3 colours that I want to assign. I am working on a VB module to define what colour numbers from the MS Access Colour Map will be assigned to each Zone number. How can I now apply this module to the form, so when it opens, all the customers who live in Zone=111 will have a Red coloured background, those living in Zone=222 will have a green colour background, etc?
View 9 Replies View RelatedHi All,
If it is possible to change the format properties of a menu/toolbar could someone please point me in the direction of some guidance/ let me know how to go about it I would appreciate it.
Specifically I'm trying to change the menu bar's /database window's property to match my forms (and company branding).
I've Googled various phrases in both UK and US spellings (to be on the safe side) and searched a few forums (this one included) and cannot find much beyond creating customised menu/tool bars.
Many thanks

Hi
I am running Access 97 and I was wondering if it was possible to change the colour(background or text) of a single record based on an attribute
I was hoping that my subform, viewing all of the records (datasheet) would look like this based on Task Des column
eg Condition = red, Awaiting = Blue
(Below is ment to look like an access datasheet view)
Property No | Task Des | MCU/ROL
PN1234/DA1 | Condtion | MCU
PN1235/DA2 | Condtion | ROL
PN1994/DA1 | Awaiting | MCU
Thanks heaps for your help
Is it possible to use a toggle button to change the colour of a label?
I assume the code should be something like this:
Code:
If Me.ToggleButton = 1 Then
Label.BackColor = RGB(0, 255, 0)
ElseIf Me.ToggleButton = 0 Then
Label.BackColor = RGB(255, 255, 255)
End If
But I've tried it in the "On Click" sections and it doesn't work.
Has A 2013 changed the way that labels are aligned, or do I need to look for some other setting. Normally in A 2010 and 2003 I could highlight a row of label click size/space > equal vertical and it would move the labels.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a large database of students and parents which charts their weight, waist circ., lifestyle etc. When I then create reports, is it possible to change the colour of the entry so that I can differentiate between students and parents results? In other words, can I have all student entries in red and all parents in black, for example? At the moment, when I try to change the colour of one of these, the entire column changes to that colour and I don't know how to amend my reports to do this. Please see attached.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a form with two textboxes that get their values from two different queries that counts records from table. If textbox1.value equals texbox2.value the textbox2.value back ground colour is green. If they are not equal textbox2.value goes red. Itried with using conditional formatting, but it doesn't work all the time as the form is not updating when it is opened.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a form (Form1) and a in it, I have 2 subforms datasheet (Subform1 and Subform2). I have ID, First Name, Last Name in each as headers.
I need to:
1) Find the subforms
2) Loop through the subforms and get all the labels
3) Change the captions
The reason for this is because I need to have the forms bilingual. I do have a function that will translate the caption (called TranslateThisWord). I just cant figure out a way to loop through the subforms and find all the labels.
Is this possible? I can't seem to find this q anywhere here so I thought I'd post.
I changed the colour of my form to white, but the Navigation Buttons at the bottom and the command buttons that I 've added stay at the default grey.
Is there anyway to change this? I right-clicked and tried changing it to white through the properties but there's nothing there that does this.
