Hi David. I don't know about that program's capabilities but would you not be able to do this somewhat simply with VBA?.. With a form open, identify all controls in that Section, check that TypeName = "Textbox", and set the background color and / or however that theme manifests, to whatever value(s) look right in a control you have manually set. The parent hierarchy is Docmd.open acform, theformname, acDesigh (I think.... can't test from where I am now) This is air code and I might not have the correct index for header section. For each ctrl in Screen.ActiveForm.sections (0).controls With curl ... End with Next At least this is how I would go about trying to do it anyway. Shame there is no Macro recorder in Access!
