[AccessD] Conditional Formatting

As far as my experience goes, your scrolling behaviour is normal.  My
impression is that the conditional formatting is applied after the form is
fully loaded.  I had so much trouble with screen flickering in Access 2000
that I didn't use conditional formatting, but in 2003 it seems to be OK.
That may just be due to faster processors/graphics cards.

I've also found that it's difficult to keep a conditionally formatted
textbox transparent - the default always seems to be white.
