i have a Tab Control with a couple of tab pages defined. My form has a user
defined background color. Is there a way to make the tabs themselves
transparant? Is there a .backcolor option that I'm not seeing? No matter
what I do, the background color of the tabs is a light gray...thanks in
advand for your help!
 
You can set the Back Style property of the tab control to Transparent, so
that the color of the detail section of your form shows through.

If you are working in Access 2003 on Windows XP, that won't work unless you
uncheck the box:
Tools | Options | Forms/Reports | Use Windows Themed Controls.
 
If all you want to do is to make the tabs themselves not visible, you can set
the "Style" property of the tab control to "None". This will cause there to
be no tabs showing at all.
