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!

COSMETICS for frmTasks

Asked by verpit in Access Forms, Microsoft Access Database, Access Coding/Macros

I'd like to make some changes to the form's cosmetics.  Any single fix will be accepted as a solution and I will post follow-up questions as required.

scaleability:
scale frmTasks to expand and contract with the horizontal and verticle resize of the window.
scale the text in the actual task entry field to wrap up-to three lines.

font/size:
bottom half of the form's text should be dark gray (not bold)
top half to remain black but not bold
the active task's text in top to be black and bold as it is now

highlights:
entire task entry box (instead of just the text) for the top active task should be medium yellow highlight.

other:
date at top right should be just day of week and large
mouseover should reveal reveal date in long format
headings for each field only need to be mentioned at the top of the form instead of both top and bottom
top items should not appear to hide behind the gray bar...  
something else is needed here for the look of the gray bar but not sure what
active task current highlight should be there on new task as well (does not show up)
cursor always return without end-user effort, to the gray area
red rec min:sec should hoover over active task (clearly more than a cosmetic item)

The screenshot and database file are both attached.

Any single cosmetic fix will result in accepting the solution and posting a follow-up question.
