The Datasheet Change Preferences window enables Users to set their own datasheet change highlighting method for all Project datasheets.
Access the window by clicking Preferences on the Datasheet Data Entry window.

These preferences affect the Datasheet Data Entry window and printed datasheets when using the Print with Previous Issue's Changes print option and are applied once a datasheet is issued.
Note: In a multi-User environment, there will only be one set of preferences that will be applied to all the Users, in other words, each User cannot have their own preferences.
