 Tough questions...

Is it possible to change the color of the data within a column of a list
box if the data meets a certain criteria?

For example, I list an Attorneys case load based on the name selected in a
combo box. If the column "Status" within the list displays "Due" I would
like to change the color of the data to red.

I've searched all of the news groups and MS knowledge base to no avail. Any
help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

In A2K: Yes, search help on "conditional formatting".
In A97: Nope, you can't. But there's a workaround you could use if you are
working with a continuos forms. Search Dev's site

A better alternative for A97 would be to go to www.lebans.com.
