FormatCondition.Modify (Access)

You can use the Modify method to change the format conditions of a FormatCondition object in the FormatConditions collection of a combo box or text box control.

Modify (Type, Operator, Expression1, Expression2)


CreateForm.Controls(1).FormatConditions(1).Modify Type:=acDataBar

Arguments

The following argument is required

Type (AcFormatConditionType) - An AcFormatConditionType constant that specifies the type of condition to be modified.


Possible values are

acDataBar The conditional format is displayed as a data bar.
acExpression The conditional format is based on an expression.
acFieldHasFocus The conditional format is based on the value of the control that has focus on a form.
acFieldValue The conditional format is based on values in the selected control.

Optional arguments

The following arguments are optional

Operator (AcFormatConditionOperator) - An AcFormatConditionOperator constant that specifies the type of operator to be used. NOTE: If the type argument is acExpression, the operator argument is ignored. If you leave this argument blank, the default constant (acBetween) is assumed.


Possible values are

acBetween The value must be between the values specified by the Expression1 and Expression2 arguments.
acEqual The value must equal to the value specified by the Expression1 argument.
acGreaterThan The value must be greater than the value specified by the Expression1 argument.
acGreaterThanOrEqual The value must be greater than or equal to the value specified by the Expression1 argument.
acLessThan The value must be less than the value specified by the Expression1 argument.
acLessThanOrEqual The value must be less than or equal to the value specified by the Expression1 argument.
acNotBetween The value must not be between the values specified by the Expression1 and Expression2 arguments.
acNotEqual The value must not be equal to the value specified by the Expression1 argument.

Expression1 - A value or expression associated with the first part of the conditional format. Can be a constant value or a string value

Expression2 (AcFormatConditionOperator) - A value or expression associated with the second part of the conditional format when the operator argument is acBetween or acNotBetween (otherwise, this argument is ignored). Can be a constant value or a string value.


Possible values are

acBetween The value must be between the values specified by the Expression1 and Expression2 arguments.
acEqual The value must equal to the value specified by the Expression1 argument.
acGreaterThan The value must be greater than the value specified by the Expression1 argument.
acGreaterThanOrEqual The value must be greater than or equal to the value specified by the Expression1 argument.
acLessThan The value must be less than the value specified by the Expression1 argument.
acLessThanOrEqual The value must be less than or equal to the value specified by the Expression1 argument.
acNotBetween The value must not be between the values specified by the Expression1 and Expression2 arguments.
acNotEqual The value must not be equal to the value specified by the Expression1 argument.
