Karen I cant answer the question, but I can tell how I do in 7.6 I click the on focus background colour to set a custom colour to the field in focus. In design mode click on the object use second tab Effects to manipulate the background colour for the field in focus

Quite a few times (and just again today) I have had clients say that they cannot see the verticle line at the beginning of a blank field. If you have Overwrite on and the field has something in it, then of course you see the entire field highlighted. But if the field is empty, sometimes that little verticle line isn't enough notice. It would be cool if it was a "form wide" ability, rather than something to set field by field. Because (as luck would have it), this is being requested by the client that has the form with 400 DB Edits on it! I don't want to change the property of 400 fields if I can avoid it! I know that I could also do this by creating an entry eep to change the background color, but for sure this would take 400 property edits! So I'm hoping for a more simple solution. Karen
