Default Change Font Color of a record in continous form view

Is there a way to change the font color of just items that meet a certain
condition within a listbox? I have a form with the default view on
"Continuous Forms", for the the items that meet a set condition I would like
just that record to be viewed in red font. Every attempt I've tried turns
all of the records to red font.

Use the conditional formatting tool and set your criteria

Thank you so much! I'm not an expert yet, far from it, I had no idea that
feature even existed. It worked beautifully and opens up some many more
options for my future designing.
