I'm in Access 2000. I have created a form to be used for data entry into this database. I want to high-light (flip / reverse) colors to show the clerk which fiend she is in... (where the cursor is) but I can't make it work on a list box - and it's driving me nuts

in a text box, I can use FORMAT / CONDITIONAL FORMATTIN
in a list box, conditional formatting is not an available option

I am sure this is "easy" - but I am new.... and would GREATLY appreciate the help
 
Try changing the BackColor in the GotFocus and LostFocus
events. You can do this with the SetValue action in a
macro.
