Conditional Formatting question

Greetings

Access help says that wildcards are not allowed when using conditional
formatting. Is there any work-around for this? I'd like to apply this
conditional formatting when... Field Value is Like "Area*"

Thanks, Becky

Where did you read that?

Try
Conditional Formatting
Expression is
[FieldName] Like "Area*")

The above works for me.
