How to change the colour of a form

RE: Form background color

Natasha,

Thank you for your questions.

In this case, all you need to do is:

1. Open the Form in Design View.

2. Right-click on the Form (away from the fields), choose the Fill/Back Colour option, then choose the colour.

I hope this answers the question. Please do not hesitate to contact me if there are any problems.

Regards

Greg

RE: Form background color

I've tried it and it doesn't work, i've also tried using back ground colour through properties and it still doesn't work. i knopw it can be done, i just can't remember how. I'm using the default form designs does that make a difference?

Access tip:

Hiding Multiple Table columns

If you want to hide non-adjacent Access table columns. In Datasheet view, open the table that contains the columns you want to hide.

On the Format menu, click Unhide Columns.
In the Unhide Columns dialog box, clear the check box next to the name of each column you want to hide.
Click Close.

This method makes having to use the Hide Columns command repeatedly unnecessary
