I have a form (actually, it's a subform, but I don't think that matters for purposes of this question) that is set to display only in continuous-form mode. The form takes up the left hald of the screen and each of the records is displayed in one line. There are a series of buttons associated with each record allowing the user to perform functions related to that record.
What I'm trying to do is figure out how to highlight (either with a different text color, background, etc.) the current record on the main form. I have no problem accomplishing that when the record is selected, but my formatting goes away when the user clicks a button and opens a subform. (The subform also has a second subform if that makes any difference.)
Ideally, what I'd like to do, is have the current record on the main form (and only the current record) displayed in red as long as it remains the current record. Is there a way to accomplish that?
Thanks!
