    Border Color Formatting in a Report

    I'm attempting to turn a border color to red based on certain criteria:



    Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
    If Me.UDF_PK_SWK_YESNO.Value = "Y" Then
    ItemCode.BorderColor = vbRed
    ItemCodeDesc.BorderColor = vbRed
    End If
    End Sub


    When I use this in the On Format section of the Detail part of my report, it colors the borders of every line item for ItemCode and ItemCodeDesc red.
    Can you tell me what I'm missing? I've tried all different kinds of combinations.

    you never turned red off:
    Code:
    If Me.UDF_PK_SWK_YESNO.Value = "Y" Then
      ItemCode.BorderColor = vbRed
      ItemCodeDesc.BorderColor = vbRed
    else
      ItemCode.BorderColor = vbBlack
      ItemCodeDesc.BorderColor = vbBlack
    End If
    but I use ON PRINT.
