Access 2007 combo back color

[M Skabialka]

I have a form with several combo boxes. I have defined them all to have a
backcolor of white, but some of them seem transparent and show the form
color through, even though I have not set them as transparent. When I click
on them they turn white, but revert when they lose focus. I am sure Access
2007 is trying to help me in some way, but I want all of the fields to be
white on this form, not some of the combos showing as beige and others
white.
I tried using the format painter to copy from a white to a transparent combo
but it still stays transparent. Creating a new one with the wizard has the
same problem.
What Access 2007 property am I missing that is doing this?

Hi M Skabialka,
the property you need to set is the alternate row color for the detail
section of the form. Set it to any color other than no color.

That is EXACTLY what I needed! Thanks - I was tearing my hair out on this
one!
