Default diary dates & current date

Yes.

Use conditional formatting.

In design view, click on the control and then select Conditional formatting
from the menu.

Expression is: [DiaryDate] Date()

Then select a font color for the that condition.

I have a form that has 4 fields on that have diary dates in them “Diary Date
“ & [ServeDate] + 21 the field update would look like “Diary Date 4/28/2010”.
The form updates on open with a marco. What I would like to do is if the
current date is greater then the Diary Date, is change the color of the font.
Is this possible.
