Is it possible to have the field boxes of a continuous form for one specific value of a checkbox field coloured white or yellow or ... ?

If yes, how can i do this? I looked around but found nothing except for the Conditional Formatting which I don't see capable of accomplishing this :(
I tried to do it with VBA but it coloured ALL the field boxes instead of just the specific row... :o
 
This is one of the ways that you can do it:
On the field 1 AfterUpdate do this:

If Me.field1= "blabla" Then
Me.field2.BackColor = 241146240 (for desired color search on that field - Format - Backckolor)
End If

The same way you can change the Fonts Color if you want.
 
If your using A2k and later then conditional formatting is your best bet, in versions earlier than that you have to cheat
