I've having trouble changing the color of a text box on mouse over on a continuous form. What I want is for when the user moves the mouse over the textbox, the font color becomes gray. Is this easy? I thought it would be, but am having trouble.

Thanks in advance.

No, there are cheats around to highlight the current record or select the record dependant on the cursor position

The problem is because you are in continuous-forms mode, not because of the mouse-over event.

The "trick" is that the color of a text box for a form in continuous mode normally depends on the color determined for the first visible instantiation of the form; i.e. the first visible record. All other displayed elements are not "really" current records - unless you select one of them with a click first.
