Frank,

This cannot be done in datasheet view BUT you can accomplish this with a
form that you can format to look like datasheet view.

Use conditional formating for your textbox:

expresion: true
choose your backup color

Thank you, this worked well.

I used an expression to change the colour in certain fields.
