It sounds like all of these controls are disabled, i.e.,
their Enabled property is set to False.
To enable a specific control, say, called txtCustomer,
Me.txtCustomer.Enabled = True
Or, to enable all input controls (of the types listed):
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
' Exclude labels, lines, other non-input controls
If (ctl.ControlType = acComboBox Or _
ctl.ControlType = acTextBox Or _
ctl.ControlType = acOptionGroup) Then
ctl.Enabled = True
End If
Next ctl

I have a form that when you open it all the fields are
grey and read only. I would like to change the background
to white when they click on the Edit Button. Kind of like
Read Only background Grey and when you click on edit or
new background white.
