Conditional formatting in a datasheet from a subform?

I have an access db. It has a tabbed interface and on the second tab, I have a datasheet view and a subform. When they click on the + to expand, they fill out event details. I have a depart field on the datasheet that has conditional formatting such that if the stop date on the subform is blank and the start date is not null, then the formatting applies. This works well, unless they refresh (there are front office and back office people working simutaneously, so they need to refresh). If they refresh, it clears the formatting. I tried redraw, repaint, I tried expanding all and colapsing all - as if you expand and colapse them manually it does apply correctly. I am stumped! The mdb is zipped and attached. Any advice would be great.
Thanks
