Hello,

I am tasked with data entry. From a spreadsheet, I enter data into
Access.
To keep track of what I've entered from the spreadsheet, I'd like to
change
the color of a cell. So, I'd like to have a quick little macro that
colors
the current cell that I am in to a different color. I did a quick little
macro but it colors to the exact same cell, not the cell (Col A) of the
current row. how to I identify a specific cell?

TIA,
Rich
