I just started learning Access and I have created a database with 53 records, 3 tables and 1 Split form. I creared a new yes/no field and I am attempting to display "Completed" in green for yes and "Not Completed" in red for no. I used the correct code in the format field:

"Not Completed "[Red];" Completed "[Green]

This worked for different field before I created the split form but now I cannot get the new field to display anything but check boxes regardless of what code I use. It won't even let me use the default yes/no, true/false or on/off options.

I've been studying this for about 2 weeks and I've figured out quite a bit but this one thing is really iritating me....:eek:

Help
Any comments would be appreciated

What version of Access are you using? I don't know what you mean when you say "a split table".
 
I'm using access 2007. Sorry I meant split form. I am running it on Vista half the time (at work) and XP (at home) the other half. I have the same problem on both OS.
:confused:
 
I was afraid of that. :( I don't have ac2007 yet so I can't be of much help. Maybe now someone with 07 will drop by with a suggestion or two.
