Date Conditional Formatting
Oct 24, 2006Guys,
I need some help with a conditional formatting function on my form.
I have two seperate date fields and I need to set up a conditional format on one field so that when the date on this field is greater than the date on the other field, the text turns red and bold.
Does anybody know how to do this please?
General :: Conditional Formatting Of Report Fields
Dec 11, 2012I am struggling to format a field on a report.
I believe it is because special charachters are in the text string
I want to highlight the field if it contains the following text
Stage 6: Won and Deploy (shipping)
Regretably, I believe Access see this as code.
I suspect I need to encapsulate it some way, but nothing seems to be working
What am I missing?? How can I force Access to see it as a text string??
Reports :: Conditional Formatting Two Fields In Report
Mar 26, 2015In my Access 2010 report, I am attempting to perform conditional formatting of one field based on the difference between two fields. In particular, one field is "Time Scheduled" and the other field is "Time In". If the "Time In" is equal to or greater than 60 minutes of "Time Scheduled", I would like to format it to be red font. If it is less, I would like to format it to be green font.how I can conditionally format to do this?

Mar 20, 2014I am trying to add conditional formatting to a several fields in a report. So far i can use the contional formatting to set a field called [colour] to set that field to red and bold. But i believe I need to use an Expression for all fields, so I can make all fields that = red go red. I have used the the expression:
[colour] = "red"
but nothing happens.
Expression Is [Subtotal]+[Freight] > 50
Reports :: Conditional Formatting Text Box On A Report
Jul 3, 2013I have a text box on a report from the Control Source CSCS Expiry Date. The format in the table and query and report is Short Date. The Text Format is Plain Text.
I have named the text box txtCSCSExpiryDate. I would like to make the background red when the date is 01/04/2013. I have ensured the text box back style is normal.
I am using expression
[txtCSCSExpiryDate]=#01/04/2013#
And in case it was the Control Source:
[CSCS Expiry Date]=#01/04/2013#
I also tried:
[CSCS Expiry Date]<Date()
[txtCSCSExpiryDate]<Date()
I applied the formatting each time, tried closing and re-opening the database. Changed the background format colour to green instead of red and even restarted my computer and it just stays exactly the same.
I've just noticed something else. I have a screen only button on my report header with
DoCmd.OpenReport "All_CSCSExpiry_Rpt" acViewPreview
Which has also stopped working. I get an error:
The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: A problem occurred while Employee Details was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX Control.
Is this linked to my formatting not working?
I've just checked and on my 5 reports all of the print buttons are giving me this error! (I added the button as they are part of a navigation form menu which only shows report view, I am editing in the original report design view though.) They were working yesterday! Is it because I compacted and repaired the database?
Reports :: Crosstab Report With Conditional Formatting

Jul 11, 2013Is there a way to use conditional formatting with a date? For instance, in my form I'd like the date field to turn red once a particular date has passed (to show that memberships are expired). Can this be done or am I better to just format a report of upcoming expiration dates?

Conditional Formatting For A Specific Date?
Feb 12, 2015I am making a tracker to track events and how close we are to the next time the event has to be done. Specifically the event has to be done every 6 (180 days) months. I am looking for a conditional format formula that can color code when certain days have been hit. When it is less then 30 days or less from the next event color it yellow, when 31-180 color it green and anything past due color it red.
Using todays date as an example 12-Feb-15 it would be colored green. 150-179 days from now I would need it to be colored yellow. Anything beyond 180 days from now would need to be red.
Reports :: Apply Conditional Formatting For Dates That Were Equal To Date And Plus 14 Days
Apr 27, 2015I have a field that displays a date on a form.
I set the conditional formatting to be
Value is Between Date() and Date() + 14
It would only apply the formatting for dates that were equal to the date and +5 days.
I then tried Between Now() and Now() + 14
Same results
I then tried Between Date() and DateAdd("d",14,Date())
No change
I checked the property for the box and the back style is normal.
I am making the back color a light red. I tried to change the fore color red. Nothing.
I displayed what Date() was giving me in a text box control and I displayed what Date() + 14 was giving me in a text box control. They both were showing the correct dates, but my date, which was in between them, was not changing colors.
Forms :: Default Formatting Option In Conditional Formatting Dialog?

View 11 Replies View RelatedReports :: Report Won't Sort By Date When Query Contains Date Formatting
Jun 21, 2013A few months ago I created a report that displays the results of a long union query comprising a dozen or so individual queries, each containing an expression that yields a date (or sometimes date and time). I set the report to group by query and then sort by the date expression. Now for some reason that I can't fathom the report has always only ever offered me the option to sort the date "A to Z", I infer it thinks the date is text, but this misunderstanding has never actually stopped it sorting by date perfectly well. It worked. No problems.
However I have recently added formatting to some of the queries so that they just display date, not date and time e.g. Format([dateandtime],"dd/mm/yyyy"), and now the sort by date in the report no longer works. None of the sorting or grouping options have changed, but it now sorts just by the "dd" component of the date - so it thinks 21st June is later than 20th July. why?

Apr 18, 2006Hi Guys,
I've a question and I hope you can help me out.......
I'm trying to use Conditional Formatting Options on a Text box called "Date". I'd like that this box become Red if its value is between value1 from Text box "Start Date" and value2 from Text box "End Date" or Green otherwise (in this way the color change dynamically every time I change the values of Text Boxes "Start Date " and "End Date"). How can I do that? What I need to type in the Conditional Formatting Windows?
Thanks a lot for you help!!!!

Aug 13, 2007Hello
On my Database I have used Conditional Formattion to change the colour of the qty to highlight when the qty is getting low however its not as good as I would hope as there are different type of definition of quantity (D of Q) e.g. Each (single items such as a screw) and Roll (such as cord and tape)
Conditional formatting doesnt work well because if I have it as less than 10 the qty is in red, its ok for the each items however not the roll as 10 rolls of tape is more than we would need.
I am just wondering if anyone knows what the code would be to change the colour depending on the qty and the D of Q
All i have got so far is:
If me.qty <10 and DofQ = EA then
Now im stuck for the change colour part
Any help would be great

Sep 8, 2005Does anyone know if there is a way in a report to display an entire row in a different color? I'm running a report based on a query and I need specific information to come up in RED. I read about conditional formatting but you can only apply it to a field in a report, but not to an entire row. Let's say I have a group of managers and I need to know the ones that are making more than $50,000 a year. I don't just want the salary to come in RED, I need the entire row (like name, last name, title, date of hire, salary, etc).
Any ideas?
thanks!

Conditional Formatting?
Mar 22, 2005Good afternoon everyone
I am new to this forum. I have not done access development for about 6 years so I appologise for my rustiness.
I have created a form based on a query. The form is of type Datasheet. I have assigned Conditional formatting to the grid fields based on an expression evaluating a check box. This works fine and when I open the form the conditional formatting works great.
However, I am now trying to add this form as a subform in A.N Other form. The parent form has no datasource and is purely there to display some text values linked to unbound controls. I did this because apparently you cannot show form header for a datasheet view.
When I insert my child form into the parent there is no logical link. The behaviour of the form and subform works fine but the conditional formatting does not appear in the subform grid.
Why is this and how can I best sort this?
Any help would be appreciated, but please be aware I am not fluent in VB as I have been away for quite some time.
Bets regards
Philm

I got a table that is looking like this:
On_Time
95%
96,88%
100%
100%
97,56%
There is more data there but this is the field i want to use. I got a form where i want a little box or something to be coloured in red if the average of all those percentages are below 95%. If its above 95% it should be green.
Can anyone help?
Conditional Formatting
May 15, 2006Hi. I have a problem with my conditional formatting. I have two fields field 1 (hours worked) and field 2 (hours per task). Field 1 shows the hours worked based on the difference between a start and finish time and field 2 shows the hours per tasked based on values assigned to the 10 task fields. I set the formatting of field 1 to show up in red if it did not match the value of field 2, which works fine most of the time. However, for certain values i.e. 5 or 6 field 1 still shows up in red even though field 2 has the same value i.e. both equal 6.
Could someone explain to me why this happens and offer a solution if possible.
Thanks for any help.

Oct 12, 2004I have an Access form that is used for traffic counts. I have a total of 8 lanes of data entry rows (4 lanes each way).I have two text boxes that show the number of lanes in each direction for a specific location. I need the input forms to enable ONLY the number of rows displayed on the text box and disable the rest. I dont have a clue on how to do it. Tried conditional formatting. But the conditions overlap.
