Our small shop has used ACCESS 2000 over the past 2 years to develop a rather
complex invoicing system, which is just now going into production. We have
not used newer ACCESS releases for development because we have a large base
of 2000 applications that will not be upgraded to current release for another
year or two.
The 3 users of the invoicing application have ACCESS 2002 installed on their
PC's
and are not happy with the appearance of check boxes on a subform within a
tab control. The subform is a continuous form fronting a work table and is
used for payment entry.
The work table has 3 yes/no fields corresponding to 3 payment types (check,
cash, other). ACCESS 2000 displays the 3 check boxes on the active entry
line as white boxes with a thin black border when they do not have focus, and
with an oval of black dots inside the border when they have focus.
ACCESS 2002 displays the 3 check boxes on the active entry line as dark
speckled grey boxes when the first box has focus, but before any entry has
been made. The color then switches to white with a black border with a
pending update (pencil icon appears in record selector box). When they are
the dark speckled grey color it is almost impossible to see which one has
focus.
Is there any setting or control in ACCESS 2002 that can be changed to make
the check boxes white instead of dark speckled gray before the pencil icon
appears?
