Conditional Formatting On Datasheet - More Than 3 Options?

Nov 2, 2006

Say I had a list of 20 employees, they can be the employee who entered a record, say that someone told me that their initials were not enough, and they want each employee to be a different color in their field on the subform datasheet.

How do you do this? Conditional formatting only offers 3 criteria, can someone tell me if this is possible and direct me to a post that deals with this? I had no luck searching for one.

Thank you.

Forms :: Default Formatting Option In Conditional Formatting Dialog?

Aug 1, 2014

Need to confirm whether the Default formatting option in the Conditional formatting Dialog won't work in datasheet view of a form. Please note that all conditional criteria are working fine but not the Default Formatting option - only in the Datasheet view (In Single Form view the default formatting is working fine)

Conditional Formatting Continuous Forms

Dec 2, 2005

:confused:
Hi. Does anyone know a way to change the colour of controls depending on their value in a continuous form?

I can change the colour of the current row in a continuous form, but I cannot adapt this so that it changes colour depending on the value (ie conditional formatting)

Conditional Formatting On Continuous Forms

Nov 7, 2005

I have an accounting database with queues that list each requisition's important information (ID, vendor, dates, etc) plus the its status (not yet submitted, approved, ordered, delivered, filed, etc).

I'd like the font of the status field to change color depending on its value. I can't use the standard conditional formatting because there are more than 3 statuses.

I've tried an If/Then statement, but the form only looks at the status of the first record, then colors the font of the status fields for the consecutive records that same color no matter what their value. How do I get it to evaluate per record? As in, if the first record has a Submitted status, its font is blue, but the next record is Ordered so its font is red.

Here's my code, I used it in the OnOpen event for the form:
If req_process_status_rec_id = 2 Then
process_status.ForeColor = 13209
ElseIf req_process_status_rec_id = 1 Then
process_status.ForeColor = 8388608
ElseIf req_process_status_rec_id = 3 Then
process_status.ForeColor = 8388736
ElseIf req_process_status_rec_id = 4 Then
process_status.ForeColor = 16737843
ElseIf req_process_status_rec_id = 5 Then
process_status.ForeColor = 52479
ElseIf req_process_status_rec_id = 7 Then
process_status.ForeColor = 6723891
ElseIf req_process_status_rec_id = 8 Then
process_status.ForeColor = 16711935
End If

Thanks!

Forms :: Use Conditional Formatting With A Date?

Jul 11, 2013

Is 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?

Forms :: Conditional Formatting For Checkbox?

Nov 24, 2013

I have a continuous form that has several checkboxes in it. Only one is initially enabled and I want the first to impact if the others are enabled, but only in the currently selected record.

I tried VBA but quickly found that this enables/disables the checkboxes in ALL of the records. Next I found out about conditional formatting--which does exactly what I want, but only works on text boxes and combo lists.

Is there any way that conditional formatting can be used to impact (vs. be impacted by) a checkbox?

Forms :: Conditional Formatting On Continuous Subform?

Jan 4, 2015

I have a continuous subform on a form. I have applied conditional formatting with expression is.. so that the formatting on one object (field on the subform) depends on whether there is anything in another field on the same subform named "Remarks".

My problem is that I this is not working to my expectations. First of all when the form with the subform is loaded the conditional formatting does not appear immediately. One has to run over the fields with the mouse with the hope that the conditional formatting appears.

Secondly the conditional formatting is not working well as they should.

Forms :: Change Color With Conditional Formatting

Oct 18, 2013

I have a subform that is purely to display information (no edits will be made on it). The subform has a special color on it (company color) that I can not deviate from. My problem is the first record in the subform (displayed as a continuous form) gets the focus. The font is white and standard access has a white background. My end goal would be to elimnate the focus for any record in the subform (if it is possible). I know that I could change the color with conditional formatting but the colors in conditional formatting do not match the company color.

Forms :: Conditional Formatting For Choices And Printing In Color

Aug 23, 2013

I have an access form that has a dropdown box list of 10 choices.

For example:

The form states please choose 1, 2, 3 or 4 then the choice should print in BLUE.

They choose 5, 6, 7 or 8 Then it need to print in RED.

So forth and so on.

I am sure there is a code I need to type in the conditional formatting area that would reflect if [1], [2], [3], [4] then I choose the red color.

I do not know how to use VBL or coding.

Forms :: Conditional Formatting On A Lookup Field List

Mar 5, 2014

My table fields are as follows:

1. Issued? (This is a lookup field with the following lists "Yes"; "No"; "NA")
2. IssueDate

I created a subform bound to the table.I wish to accomplish the following on the form:

1. If "No" is selected on the [Issued?] field, I want the [IssueDate] to gray out.
2. If "Yes" is selected, I want [IssueDate] to be required.

I set Conditional Formatting as follows:

Expression is ([Issued?]="No"), condition is disabled.

When I tested it, [IssueDate] grayed out when "No" was selected. However, when I select "Yes", it still remained grayed out.

Forms :: Conditional Formatting Based On Value In Targets Table

Oct 15, 2014

I have a form which basically has - employee, work done, hours and a calculated field (w/hour) of work done/hours

I can manually set the conditional formatting however as time changes targets will go up and it would be easier to update the targets in another 'admin form' (i can manage that part)

Its just referencing the other table to say the likes of :

if work per hour is greater than tbltargets.convtargetmid then vborange, if work per hour is greater than tbltargets.convtargethigh then vbgreen else vbred.

Forms :: Conditional Formatting - Combo Box To Highlight If Value Is Not On The List

Feb 23, 2015

I want to add a conditional formatting to a combo box to highlight if the value is not on the list.There is a process to read in data from a 3rd party excel sheet that has truck arrival dates and times. My form displays this data and allows the internal users to change it. My form has the "Trucks" field as a limit to list combo box - so basically any data can be read into this field but internal we can only change it to trucks on the list (from the trucks table). I want to highlight where the trucks value is not in our trucks list.

Forms :: Conditional Formatting Based Upon Presence Of A Record

Mar 13, 2014

I have a subform (called NAMES) on a main form (called MAIN) that lists names. Elsewhere on MAIN, I have a second subform (called ASSIGNED) that lists people that have been assigned.

When I double click a name on NAMES, it automatically adds them to the ASSIGNED list (who's record source is a table). What I want the NAMES form to do is conditionally format the NAMES form so that the record that's been added turns green. That way I can see who I've added and who I haven't yet added. Once I've added them all, the NAMES form is a simple list of all-green names. If there's a black name in the list, it's because I haven't yet added them to ASSIGNED.

I've tried a DLookup function, and I've tried a Value= conditional formatting rule, and neither one are working... I already got the 'double click to add' thing working, now I just need the name to turn green when I've added them.

Forms :: Use Conditional Formatting To Indicate Mismatch Between 2 Of Identical Fields

Nov 4, 2014

Forms :: Conditional Formatting Of Control On Continuous Form

Feb 2, 2015

I have a continuous form on which where each record has many controls, including control (A). I wish to set the colour of this control based on the contents of another control (B). Control B is a memo format and is placed behind another control making it hidden. The idea being that the user can then click on control(A) and look at supporting information from Control B on another form.

Conditional formatting cannot be used since this only allows conditions based on the control (A), not (B). Event procedures cannot be used since they all depend on making a record the current record, and I want the user to immediately see when further information is available. When I apply VBA code using an 'on load' event it is action for all records on the form in a way that if only one record has extra information, all records are flagged in this way.

Forms :: Conditional Formatting On Actual Data Control

Apr 1, 2013

I inherited an Access 2000 (2002?) database that uses a textbox behind another to change the background color based on two different fields.

The Format property is set to: "[Green];"[Yellow], the Data ControlSource is set to:

=IIf([chkCheckedIn]=True,1,IIf([PassExpired]="NO",1,-1))

I understand the IIF(), but what's happening with the crazy characters? (It works the text changes from yellow to green). I tried replacing it with conditional formatting on the actual data control. That only changes color when I click on the control. The above shows the color all the time.
