Set alternate row color for a data access page

To display alternate rows in the header and footer sections of a group in a different color, the DataPageSize property of the group must be set to a value greater than 1.

  1. Open a data access page in Design view.
  2. Click the arrow on the header section bar of the group for which you want to set the color, and then select Group Level Properties.
  3. Set the AlternateRowColor property to the color you want.

Note  The default alternate row color for headers and footers in new data access pages is whitesmoke. You can change the default setting by changing the value of the AlternateRowColor property on the Pages tab in the Options dialog box.
