    Conditional Formatting of Text Boxes

    Is there a way to do more complicated formatting of text boxes (beyond font, color, etc.)? I want to create something like picture below, where a percentage of the text box is filled depending on the value in the box itself. I tried to do this using a chart, but the charts just don't seem to have enough formatting options to pull it off. Any ideas to recreate the image below in Access?

    Thanks!

    Look at some of the Progress bars and see how they did it: http://www.accessmvp.com/JConrad/acc...gressbars.html

    Thanks! I'll try one of these. It really seems like there should be an easier way, though.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
