Coloring Tab Control

D

Don

Hello, I have a form with a tab control on it. The detail form has a
background color of blue. I don't want the standard grey on the tab control
so I set the back style to transparent on the tab control. This work great
on my machine as the tab control shows blue but on some other pc the tab
control show white. I think maybe it's a windows system setting that causes
this??

How can I set up the tab control to show blue on all machines?

Thanks

Hi Don

Go to Tools>Options>Forms/Reports and unselect the option "Use Windows
Themed Controls on Forms".
