alternating light and dark rows

[thoms314159]

I am making an Access database with a subform. Does anyone know how to modify the background in this subform so that each consecutive record displayed will appear with alternating light and dark backgrounds for ease of readibility?

hanibalt,
check out the following url for a couple of files
rptsmp97.mdb
frmsmp97.mdb
the report mdb has a routine for shading every other line.
