    Another Hopefully Simple Thing!!!


    Can anyone tell me how to make the number field also a color that would depend on which number was there?

    It is the Sort Values I want them to be a certain color if its number 0 or if it is number 1, so 0 would be red and 1's will all be blue and so on.

    Exactly what Conditional Formatting is intended for. Up to 50 conditions possible.

    Report or form in design view, select textbox then on the ribbon > Format > Conditional Formatting.

    Access Help has more guidance.
