Are there additional style backgrounds available somewhere for the forms in
XP Access? The ten or so isn't cutting it with my wife.
Thanks in advance,

You're not limited to what you have in the Access file.
Any picture can serve as a form background.

Scan a suitable picture into a Bitmap file.
Set the Form's Picture property to that bitmap.
Set the Picture Size Mode, Alignment, Type and Tiling to whatever
works best for you.
 
Personally, I never use anything but a gray background. If you look a
professionally created applications (Word, Excel, etc.) you don't see any
cute backgrounds. To me, an application that has a background screams:
"Newbie".

Sorry, just one man's opinion.
