Conditional coloring of a field in a report.

[Lydia]

I want to test a field and based on whether the field contains data or not, I want to color the background of another field. Is this possible?

Look up the BackColor property in the help file and then look at the example. You could put this code into the AfterUpdate event of the field that might contain data. You might want to check the length of the contents of the field first to make sure that it's not empty. You can take it from there.<br>
