Same background image on switchboard and Forms

[Guest]

I am a fairly new user and have successfully created a DB with multiple entry
forms that were created using the form wizard. When I create the switchboard
I am unable to determine how to pass the same background over to the
switchboard that was generated when the original forms were created. The
background I selected when creating the forms is the Expedition. How do I
include this background into the switchboard?

Any help is sincerely appreciated.

Set the Switchboard Form's Picture property to:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\Bitmaps\Styles\ACEXPDTN.GIF

You'll probably also want to set the PictureSizeMode to Stretch.

Note: the path to the picture might be different on your computer.
Easiest way to find it is to search your hard drive for ACEXPDTN.GIF
