The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Changing Control Colors

Asked by billcute in Access Coding/Macros, Access Forms, Access Architecture/Design

I found code below for changing colors at the link below.
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Microsoft/Development/MS_Access/Q_21276288.html

What I will like to do now is to change control colors and font colors using "If Statements" and "tag" properties of the controls.

If Me.cboConnType = "NC" and (cboSType = "DM" Or cboSType = "CM") then
---> Change controls to Yellow Color; font color to bold Red in which "Tag" property = "YR"

ElseIf Me.cboConnType = "RR" and (cboSType = "ST" Or cboSType = "NS") then
---> Change controls to Pink Color, font color to bold White in which "Tag" property = "PW"

ElseIf Me.cboConnType = "PL" and (cboSType = "DM" Or cboSType = "CM") then
---> Change controls to White Color, font color to bold Black in which "Tag" property = "WB"

The idea behind of changing the font color too is to make it possible for control data to show when the controls color do change.

Private Sub CtlColors()
Dim x As Integer, cntl As String
    For x = 0 To Me.Controls.Count - 1
        cntl = Controls(x).Name
        If Controls(x).ControlType = acTextBox Then
            If Nz(cntl, -1) < 0 Then
                Me(cntl).ForeColor = RGB(255, 0, 0)
            Else
                Me(cntl).ForeColor = RGB(255, 255, 255)
            End If
        End If
    Next
End Sub
