I have a form that I want to do the following conditional formating...

1) If field Like "*AB""
2) If field is Null or Empty

I can't seem to get the Conditional Format property to work for me. On number one I don't even see it as an option.

Muchos Gracias

I have done much coding with VBA and have never used the conditional formatting. Thanks. I feel kinda dumb now.
