how to get started with Dexterity

Hi Everyone,

Hi Experts,
I am using microsoft GP with Modifier and VBA to customize some of the forms. So far everything was possible up to the point that I can't modify a color field from VBA, I know I can set the color right in Modifier but I would like to have the field change color when an event occurs ( I am actually trying to change the color of a field when someone click a check box) , Well I thought it would be possible to do it with VBA but apparently, Microsoft didn't give us the tool to do so.

Anyway, I found a post (see below) with an example on how this can be done but from Dexterity. I never wrote a dexterity code and I am not even sure where to begin or how everything interact with VBA . Can someone help me on integrating Dexterity in my VBA code for changing the color of a field ?

Thanks
David

    I would suggest taking a course in DEX.  Two are scheduled currently, on in Fargo just before the Developer Conference and one later in Orlando.  Both are scheduled through Integrated Business Group.  407-677-0370  (Ask for Roxanne and tell her Richard told you to call)
