Reports :: Change Text Of A Field To Blue Color If A Certain Condition Is Met
Oct 8, 2014
I have a report which I would like to change the text of a field blue if a certain condition is met. What I want to happen on this report is if a specific field has an "Active" - then it will be in Blue text, otherwise it is in black text.
I have gone into the report ->in the Details section -> put a procedure in the On Format event. The code I have been trying is:
-----
If Analysis_Status = Active Then
Me.Analysis_Status.ForeColor = vbBlue
Else
Me.Analysis_Status.ForeColor = vbBlack
End If
End Sub
----

Private Sub TestButton_Click()
Dim bc As Long
bc = TestButton.BackColor
TestButton.BackColor = bc
End Sub
Somehow this changes the color of the button from light blue to a darker blue. Yes, this has no real purpose, but it is a test to see why be app. isn't working. I store the color, but it back and it's not the same color.

I know you can use a "Conditional format" to change a color of a control in a report. What I am trying to do is change the whole line if a condition yields "True" of one control. I did it once before, but oops I didn't save my work. I am using the format [Entity]![IT]. Where "Entity" is either the department or vendor, and "IT" is for the IT department. I want the control "Name" to change color if "Entity" is true if "IT" is the data.

In access report, I'm trying to change color of text in specific records based on the true/false value in another record. Works in forms using conditional formatting, but won't seem to work in a report.
Here's what works in forms : IIf([2009 Symposium]=true, forecolor=255 ....this changes the records to red.
But using the same expression in a report doesn't change the text color.

I'm using Access 2010. I'm passing a string into the OpenArgs of my report - works fine. In the report there are 3 rich text fields which may contain the text I passed in, and if so I want to change the color of that text to red so it stands out.
The value passed to the report changes so I'll need to use VBA in the detail's format section to check each of the 3 rich text fields.

How do you change negative number to red in a report's text box? i am thinking it is an iff statement in the control source field but running into issues.
Is there a way to change all Negative nubmers to red in a Report? That is, do i have to change all text boxes individually?

I have a report card program that I use in my classroom. The program calculates letter grades for various sub categories.
For example, under the Primary Category Math, the computer will calculate a letter grade based on assignment scores and place the grade into a combo box for the sub category "Able to use a graphing calculator."
If I override the grade the program calculated for a student, I would like the text in the combo box to change to red for that student only. Then I can go back and quickly see which grades I have manually changed.
I just cannot seem to figure out the logic to use VBA that would check to see if a user has changed individual combo boxes.
Thanks ahead of time for any ideas.

I'm trying to code this with the OnChange option on the TextBox but can't see to find the right code.

I have two forms sourced from one table. if the address of a client has changed then there is a Command button that opens a form to enter the previous address.
What I want is for the text on the command button to change to red if there is a previous address filled in. I have seen it done but cannot copy the code. What I have is on the OnCurrent event of the (main form)
Dim InColor As Integer
InColor=255
Me.[Command126].Forecolor=(And what I want to say here is "If the field previousaddress is not null then ...)*255
Any ideas??? (I wanted to have the database completed before the New Year (less than 12 hours to go!!!)

I am attempting to create an expression that will change the font to red if it is an overdue date. It will be on a form with the records showing.
My datebase is for entering, changing, and searching for information dealing with orientation dates, contacts, and associations. My data sheet holds the company name, employee name, date of orientation, due date (orientations are completed annually), contact employee, and status. I would like the date, when opening the form, to show red if it is past due. how to create an expresion to return the status as "Current" or "Overdue", as I am still unsure which method I want to use.

Where can I find the Hex or RGB value for the blue colour that Access 2010 uses by default for buttons on forms? I need to change some buttons to yellow (I know the code for that) but later change them back to the previous shade of blue, which is shown in the Properties pane "Accent 1, Lighter 40%".
By clicking in the standard colors area at the bottom of the colour chooser I can find a very similar blue #D6DFEC but it doesn't look quite right. And the "accent" colour does not give me a Hex value.Is that "usual" blue even one colour? How can I reset a button to that style having changed it?

I am trying to hide a text box based on the contents of another text box in the same report. Here is the code:
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
If IsEmpty(Me.DocFullName) Then
Me.Text55.Visible = False
Else
Me.Text55.Visible = True
End If
End Sub
i.e. I want Text55 to disappear if DocFullName is empty.
I thought my code was OK, but it refuses to co-operate.

I have a similar problem, I'm fairly new to ACCESS and am learning it is vastly different than EXCEL that we use (we are upgrading to ACCESS to track our "in" and "out". I have set up a ACCESS database to track our barge loading and pumping, on the delay we enter reason for the delay but if no delay occurs it is left blank. How can I get the field to change colors if information is entered and left alone if none is entered.

I have an unbound listbox on a form which displays a list of staff, both past and present, based on an SQL query.
I want to be able to differentiate between current and past staff using different colors, i.e. Black text for current employees and red for employees who have left, based on a field (True/False) in the original staff table.

Is there a way to change the back color of an active field in a form? Meaning, when I tab through my form and the field I tab to becomes active, the field turns white. This poses a problem because my form back color is black and my field text is white. When the field is active, I can't see the value in the field due to the back color defaulting to white. Does this make sense? Is there a way to change it?

I would like to change the background color of a field that is the result of a Unique Values query. I am trying to get a list of invoices where all the line items are approved. I can't seem to get it to work the way I want because if even one invoice line item is approved it will show up as approved.
Is there a way to change the background color of the invoice field to red if ANY of the Approved line items are = False

How do I change the background colors and text formatting in all of the reports in one database at the same time? If this is not possible, is there an easier way to change the report formatting without going through every report?

I have two separate reports. They have identical formatting. When I click on Adobe: Convert to PDF, this is what happens. Report 1 will convert with light blue in the column headers. Report 2 will convert with grey scale in the column headers. I have no clue as to how to make them both light blue or both grey scale. My boss wants them to match.

in a continuous form i want to click on one record and have the one field change the background colour to highlight it. When I use the code: Field. BackColor = vbYellow it changes the background on all the records. Is there a code to say only for the record with focus?

I am trying to change the button color on a subform if a related form data changes.Main form is products with a continuous subform with serial numbers of products i.e, serial number, location, price and a button to add addtional issues if there are any for this particular serial number (this will open up another form related to the serial number so I can add an issues if there are any).The reason I would like the button to be a different color is so I can quickly see if there are any additional notes been added to the serial number. Just in case you may ask why not add the field to the continuos form is that the issues and be quite lengthy and there may be lots of serial numbers on the form
2346 location warehouse price 29.99 (button - green)
2347 location shop price 29.99 (button - red)

I have a table named ColorValues with the following three fields:
- ID
- MunsellCode
- RGBValue
30 fields from another table called Color_Analysis are linked to the above with one to many relationships (I've already thought of other ways to normalize data, but this is the most efficient, so no need to go into this topic).
Now, I've constructed a form for Color_Analysis and all 30 fields recording color are included as combo boxes bounded on the ID in ColorValues and displaying the MunsellCode for the user. I've also created unbounded text fields next to the combo boxes and want to use them to display the color that the user selected in the ComboBox. The question is how do I do this?
Essentially I need a piece of code that picks up the value of the combo box (this is essentially the ID in ColorValues), looks up that value in the ID column of the ColorValues table and uses the corresponding RGBValue of the same table as the .BackColor for the unbounded text field.

I have a report that I would like to have the rows be a specific color based on the value in 1 field on the row.
I have attempted to use conditional formatting but it will not work (IE, I can get font color to change, but not field boxes to have color).
The field is labeled [text144] based on the value in the field (1,2, or 3) I would like the field to be a different color.
i.e.
3 = green
2 = yellow
1 = red
