Re: formatting one control but conditioning another

What version of Access?
If your using Access 2000 or newer, click on the [Text1] control.
Then click on Format + Conditional Formatting.
In the Condition 1 drop-down box select
Expression Is
In the Text box along side the drop-down, write:
[Field2] = 2
Click on the Condition 1 Bold tool button.
Save the dialog and run the form.
