Change Form Style

I created a new form using the Form Wizard and selected one of the preset styles. After the form was complete, I realized that the style was not appropriate. I can not figure out how to change it. It is definitely not just the background color. Frankly, I cannot change that either

Any way to fix this without deleting the form and starting over

Thank you,

Tara
 
You can delete the style by opening the form in Design View and selecting
Properties. Then, find the Picture property, which should be set to:
(bitmap) Delete this entry to remove the graphic altogether.

If you want to pick a new graphic background, click the ellipsis (the little
button with the three dots ...) at the end of the Picture property row.
You will then need to navigate to the folder containing the graphic
backgrounds (styles). In Access 2002, they are found in:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\Bitmaps\Styles

Your version of Access may have then stored slightly differently.
