Have downloaded your RichTextActiveXControl - a nice
piece of work - but I am encountering the following
problem:

When the control is placed on a form the control's
backcolour adopts the same backcolor as the form.

If the forms backcolour is changed the controls
backcolour remains as above.

Is there a way of resetting the controls backcolor?

Thanks in advance

Tom

Are you placing the RTF2 control on the page of a TAB control in Access
2003 under WIndows XP with a custom Theme enabled?

Am using Access 2002 under Windows XP Pro no custom theme
enabled.

RTF2 control is being placed straight to form not a Tab
control page

If its of any further help, this can be reproduced if I
open a new form, add the RTF2 control and then change the
background colour of the form the background colour of
RTF2 control remains as per the original background
colour.

Do you realize that the RTF2 control has a BackColor property
independant of the Form?
Me.NameOfRTF2Control.Backcolor = whatever

Thanks that sorted the problem. I was not aware of that
property.
