A useful tool in Microsoft Access is conditional formatting, where certain formatting is used when certain conditions are met, like a field containing a particular value or set of values, or when the field has focus. This helps MS Access Developers and Consultants tailor specific elements in reports or forms to a client’s needs, for example you can create a report which uses standard accounting practices like using black text to denote a profit or red text to show a loss.
Although not the only use for conditional formatting, it can also be used to highlight specific fields to bring attention to certain values or fields when required. Overall, conditional formatting is yet another tool provided by Microsoft Access to aid Developers and Consultants in delivering powerful and valuable databases to their clients.
