Hi Cindy Try this. Immediately after you put the code to set the BackColor (presumably in the OnFormat of the Detail section) put: Me.subRep.Report.Section("Detail").BackColor = Me.Section("Detail").BackColor Where subRep is the name of the subreport control on your main report. If your subreport has >1 section you'll need to repeat for each. Oh and don't forget to make the background style of the individual controls transparent.. -- Andy Lacey http://www.minstersystems.co.uk > -----Original Message----- > From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com > [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of > Cindy Fraase > Sent: 22 November 2005 15:50 > To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving > Subject: [AccessD] How can I match the subreport to back > color changes inthe main report? > > > > Hi all, > I've learned a lot just reading all your posts, but I've > finally found something I can't figure out from the archives. > I have a main report that changes the back color in the > detail section alternately.
