Hello.
I have a combo box in a form called "type of sale" (retail, finance,
wholesale), and 2 fileds called "cash down" & "finance fee" .
I need the "cash down" & "finance fee" fields to turn yellow if the combo
box "type of sale" has been select to "finance" .
Could you please help with this?

Thanks.
