Access Colors

[DSmith]

Is there anyway to keep the colors consistant in an Access database?
Everytime I change my windows theme some of the color changes transform into
the database.
Thanks!

Ok, I'm using Office 2007. Where do I get to make that choice? Thanks!

In the property sheet for the selected control. For example you can
set the backcolor of some textbox not to an item in the dropdown list,
but a selection from the ... button next to it, and select from the
section named Standard Colors.

So you can't make a selection for the whole database--you have to select for
each control--correct?

For example: the selection color under groups changes whenever I change my
window theme plus the background color. How do I get them to stay a certain
color within the database and not change when the window theme changes.
Thanks.
