You cannot do that in a continuous form in Access, without using a 3rd party
control.

The image control in Access 2007 has a Control Source for the first time, so
you can do it in the new version.

If you do literally want something like the five gold stars, you could
do this with text instead of graphics.

Include a field in your query something like ...

MyRating: String$([MyScore],"x")

This assumes that [MyScore] is a single digit or so number: if not,
just factor it as necessary.

You'll probably want to use some character other than 'x'; perhaps
something from the Wingdings font. And, of course, you may want to set
the fontcolour to something other than black.

One benefit of this approach is the absence of 'flashing' as the
conditional formatting is applied to each page of results.
