Can I change the background colour of cells (actually entire entries) rather than a whole table?

Judith,

I do not think that this is possible, changing colour of the cells within a table is not really necessary within access (it is more of an excel thing). If you do want to do this I would suggest creating a report.

Hope this helps
David

Access tip:

Open A Combo Box Automatically

This is helpful if users need to enter large amounts of data. There are two ways to open ComboBoxes when they get the focus by using the tab keys.

When the ComboBox gets focus:

Press Alt + Down Arrow on the keyboard

For it to happen automatically, needs a bit of coding:

1. Add a combo box and a text box control to the form
2. Set the combo box's On Got Focus property to the following event procedure:

Private Sub ComboBoxName _GotFocus()

Me!ComboBoxName.Dropdown

End Sub


3. Open your form in Form View and use the TAB key to make sure it works.
