How do I set a font color for a text field

[samcam]

I'm trying to set a font color for one data field in a simple database by
entering [color] in design view next to Format. It displays the color name
in the Format section under the General tab in Field Properties but the font
color does not change in the database.

Samcam -

Change the Forecolor property, not the format property.

In a table or query, you can't. However you should be able to do this in a
form or report including conditional formatting depending on the data in the
field.
