Field Properties

Larry

In Access each field has individual properties (font, size, color etc). Is
there a way around having to enter all these similar properties for each
field. This seems so redundant. Is there a way that I can set up these
properties only once and have individual fields use these settings?

If you select them all at once you can type properties they have in common once
and it will apply to all selected controls at the same time.
