'Change the color of a selected record in an Access REPORT
My Access REPORT has a text box with the Record ID that looks like a button with an on click event to go to a form for that specific record. This works great, but when I return to the report I cannot see which record was clicked. I want to temporarily change ONLY the record that was clicked until another record is selected.
The reason I want this on a report and not a form is because I want the user to have a quick way to proof read in the format needed to print, and make a change or check a detail if necessary, then update the report AFTER all proof reading and updates are completed and before final print. But with many records on the screen it is easy to lose track of which record you were checking when returning from the form.
I tried:
Private Sub btn_txt_GoToTransaction_Click()
Dim vColor
vColor = RGB(51, 204, 51) 'green
Me.btn_txt_GoToTransaction.BackColor = vColor
DoCmd.OpenForm "Account_frm", acNormal, , "[TransactionID]=" & Me.TransactionID
End Sub
But this does not work because every button turns color not just the selected record.
Any suggestions? Thanks.
