I am importing data from a spreadsheet and using a update query to oput the data into its correct table. What I want to do is if the data is changed during the update, I want to change the color of the text. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance

If you kept the old value someplace you could probably use conditional formatting or code to change the format of the changed data values.

I have created a text box that updates with the current date when the field is changed.
So it should now be easier. I think. Do I create a module to change the text to Bold and put the module in the query for the form or should I put the module in the form somewhere?

Can you create any kind of expression that could be used to determine which records should be bolded?
