alternate colors in form detail section

[NJS]

Good Day All
In 2003, how does one set form detail rows to alternate colors? (similar
requirement to using the 'format' detail in reports)
thank you

I'm not sure about 2003, but in 2007 there is a BackColor and
AlternateBackColor property for the Detail section of the form. Changing
these to 2 different colors causes a continuous form to alternate between
those colors. Maybe the same in 2003?

Sorry, that's a v2007 innovation! Stephen Lebans has a hack for doing this in
earlier versions:
