    formatting due dates

    Hi,
    Please see attachment. I have created a mini database which will hopefully help me in explaining the process.

    Table1: Field1 - 8 rows/8 records

    Form1: Field1 text box
    So in this box I used conditional formatting to say- whenever the date is greater than 04/05/2006, turn red.
    So now I scroll to record2, need to have new conditional formatting rules to apply to this record.
    My understanding is that I can use the remaining 2 conditions for records 2 and 3.
    But what about records 4,5,6 & 7.
    For example in record 4 I need the date to be greater than 02/15/2006, and record 8 to be greater than 05/09/2006-and as you can see when you scroll down to record 8 it has already turned red because it is governed by the rules in record1!
    Hopefully this makes sense!
    Is there a way to get around this? Is conditional formatting the only way to achieve this?
    If it's not what would I do?
    Thanks in advance for your help!
