Does anyone know how one might be able to change the colour of the message
box title to a colour other than the standard "blue" bar?? I have been asked
if I can display it in "red" when it is a critical error....

Thanks,

Brad

The MsgBox colors, fontstyle, fontsize, etc. are set in the Windows
properties (Desktop + Properties + Appearance) and are not changeable
unless you change it for all Windows and Office applications.
You would be better off creating your own unbound form to use a
Message box. You can then alter whatever properties you want, when you
want to.
You would then open the form using DoCmd.Openform, , , , , acDialog.
