Look at Conditional Formatting (Tools/Conditional Formatting).

What version do you have? Every version beginning with 2000 has Conditional Formatting. It would be in the ribbon in 2007, on the design tab I believe. I just realized I said Tools when I meant Format.

If it is disabled, you haven't selected a control to apply formatting to yet. Have you looked in Help yet?
