Conditional Formatting in form waiting until end of code to display

I am opening a form in a module that displays data that the user has to confirm is ok. Some of the fields in the form have conditional formatting that changes colors depending on the results. After the docmd.openform - there is more code and a msgbox that comes up that the user has to select "Yes" or "no" - the problem is that the data in the form that has conditional formatting does not display until after the user selected a button on the msgbox and after all the other code has run in the module. I tried inserting DoEvents but that did not help. Is there anyway to have the program first finish displaying the full form before it goes to the next step and opens the msgbox?

Thanks
