[AccessD] Conditional Formatting bug?

Hi Arthur,

I have used Conditional Formatting fairly often, both in Access 2000 and 
Access 2003, with more than one condition, based on the value of a 
calculated control, and I have never experienced the type of problem you 
have described.

Can you give us the details of how you have the CF set up?

Regards
Steve
