Hi all,

The question I've got is if I have a table or a form or database in a non-Maximized view (i.e. it is just a floating window within the Access application), and I want to expand or decrease its size by clicking and dragging the lower right-hand corner, I get a grey/gray outline. The shade of this outline is very similar to the background in the Access application window, so that it is very difficult to see.

Is there any way of changing either the shade/color of the outline or the Access window background so that I can distinguish one from the other?

Thanks for your help!

Hi, have you tried changing your Windows desktop theme? I'm assuming you are using Windows in the absence of any other information.

If you go to your desktop, right click -> Properties, select Appearance Tab, try selecting another "colour scheme" and see of this makes any difference.

HTH, Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for the tip. I never knew it would work with application backgrounds. It's super. At last I can see the window outline as I expand and decrease the size.

Thanks!
