Access 2003 - I have a form in my application that has several fields. When you TAB from field to field there is a very thin vertical indicator (it is not the mouse pointer) to show where the next field is. However, this indicator is so thin that sometimes is very difficult to detected specially if the user gets distracted for something else. This indicator is the one I would like to change, if possible, so that the user can easily visualize where the next entry field is located. Any help is appreciated. Have a wonderful day.
 
to show where the next field is
Really ?
Not the ACTUAL field you're in ?
 
PHV, sorry, you are right, I meant the ACTUAL field I'am in.
 
You may play with the MousePointer property in the GotFocus and LostFocus event procedures, but I'd don't follow this route.
Maybe a customized windows theme ?

Hope This Helps, PH.
