Hi there, I have a userform with 100 text fields on it. they are all named dp1 dp2 dp3.... dp99 dp100

when I enter a text field I want the backcolor to change to green and the text white. and upon exiting revert to backcolor white and black text... I can do this using this code:

Code:
Private Sub dp1_enter()
Me.dp1.BackColor = &H8000&
Me.dp1.ForeColor = &HFFFFFF
End Sub


Private Sub dp1_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
Me.dp1.BackColor = &HFFFFFF
Me.dp1.ForeColor = &H80000008
End Sub

but is there a way to do a 'catch all' bit of code, or do I have to manually enter this code for all 100 text fields?

If you can point me in the right direction, I'd be very happy.

Thanks

Rob
