Formatting control in continuous form?

[pebe]

I would like to format a control (or hide/show) in a continuous form, for every record.

eg.:
* change backgroundcolor of a textbox based on the value of another textbox.
* change the .visible property of a button in the form based on the value of a recordvalue
​

Cannot seem to find a way to achieve this.

is this possible ?

Changing backcolor of a textbox is possible using conditional formatting.

Changing the .visible property of a button is NOT possible in a continuous form (unless every instance of the button hiding/reappearing is acceptable (which I doubt))
