I have had a problem related to conditional formatting and excel throwing a wobbler....... it was a huge file!!

Could access end up throwing a wobbler if conditional formatting was used in large proportions?

Access is designed to handle large quantitiies of data, where Excel is not. So you would probably have better luck with Access. If it does throw a wobbler, then I woul dhave your machine checked.
