Hi Guys,
I'm looking for a way to highlight an entire row when it is selected. This would be when the form is the 'Continuous Forms' state.

Does anybody have a solution?

Thanks,

You can use conditional Formating. (Assuming Access 2k or Xp)

When in Design mode of the form, right click on one of the fields and choose 'conditional formatting'.

When the window comes up setup the condition to 'Field has focus'. Then change the fill/back color to something different then what is currently displayed, like 'yellow'.

More detailed sample - highlights the entire row:
