I have a simple 8-fields form bound to a table. I want to change the fore color property for each field if a check box is clicked. I am creating an “on-click” sub. When I type “Me!PensionNo.”, 2 of my 6 text fields do not allow me to change the color; in fact, it only shows “value” in the drop down list. I have checked the properties in the table and these 2 fields are no different from other fields that display a long list of properties. Can anyone tell me why? See code below. Lines that are commented out (') are problem lines:
If Signed = -1 Then
Me!Department.ForeColor = lngRed
'Me!PensionNo.ForeColor = lngRed
Me!SSN.ForeColor = lngRed
'Me!LastName.ForeColor = lngRed
'Me!FirstName.ForeColor = lngRed
'Me!MiddleInitial.ForeColor = lngRed

Me!PED.ForeColor = lngRed
Me!Signed.BorderColor = lngRed

AHA! I discovered that the .Name property value had a space between tow-word field names. For example, PensionNo was typped as "Pension No", FirstName as "First Name" ...

Thanks to all who tried this.
