Tabular from has alternate lines of background. Can I change this to all 1 background color?

[IamKJVonly]

I know that right now a form set for tabular view has the background of each record alternating between light and dark.

My question is this. Can I set the background of each record to the same color?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Try setting the Detail section AlternateBackColor property.

Ooops, just tested and that does not work with Datasheet view. Probably have to use Continuous view and arrange controls to look like datasheet.

Thanks very much it solved the problem
It was under the property of the background; under detail; and Alternate background set to "No Color"

Thanks again June7 I just couldn't find out where to look.
Now Happy days are here again.

datasheets use different properties based on columns and rows rather than controls and sections and only available via vba - see this link

you may have to set both back and alternate colors

Interesting, tried that and doesn't work for Datasheet view.

it works for me - in form open event

Me.DatasheetBackColor = vbRed
Me.DatasheetAlternateBackColor = vbGreen

bit garish but it works

but either way, looks like OP is not using a datasheet anyway
