[AccessD] Changing colors on many controls on one Form

Hi John

I have a cheats way - no code- way cool

Just to test this - pick just one control from your form

Set its back colour to say...red then save the form

Then change the back colour for that very same control to transparent and save
the form

Then open the form in run time

Watch what happens when that control receives the focus then looses the focus

Not too sure if this works for a97 - it works (as far as I can recall) for A2K
and AXP

Hope this helps

See ya

Darren

Good morning all
 
I've just been asked by a user if the backcolor can be changed when that  
control has got focus and changes back to original when it looses focus. Yeah  
thats OK I can handle that no problems. But with 30+ controls going to each  
control and adding one line of code to change the backcolor and change  it back 
on each got and lost focus property is a pain. And next week the  user will ask 
"can we have a different color".
 
This job labour intensive so is there a more elegant approach to this  simple 
but boring job??
 
TIA
