You're welcome.

As far as changing font colors, where do you mean exactly? In a label, in a textbox, what?

But, in general, most controls on an Access form have a "Fore Color" property. This is the value you need to change to set a color.

You can do this from design mode or in code "Text1.Forecolor = vbRed", would change the text in the textbox to Red. There are other constants that will change color too, or you can use something like the RGB function to change a color with more options.

Look RGB up in Access help, it has some good information if you need it.

Cheers.
