How To Highlight Entire Row Of Continuous Form

In this Microsoft Access tutorial I'm going to show you how to highlight an entire row of fields in the selected row of a continuous form using conditional formatting and a wee bit of VBA programming.

Frank from YouTube (a Silver Member) asks: Hello. With a continuous form, how do I make the background color of every field in the row change to the same background color just by clicking on any of them, regardless of content. I would just like users to know which row of data they're on at a glance without squinting at the screen.
