Conditional Formatting Value =""

Post by D Willett »

Hi.
I can use the following "Expression Is": IsNull([LastWorkCat])=True in Conditional Formatting, but I need the expression to test for an empty field value where the value is ""
Can someone help with the syntax here?

Kind Regards
Cheers ...

Dave.

Try

Nz([LastWorkCat],"")=""

This will catch both Null and the empty string "".
Best wishes,
Hans
