I have changed the color of my form
But now I want to use the system color, thus the color changes when changing
the Windows colors.
How can I do this?
There is a Help topic that defines the system colors. The consants are listed
below. I normally use vbButtonFace (-2147483633) for my form backgrounds so
that they are always the same color as CommandButtons and ToggleButtons. To get
the digital value for any constant just type...
?ConstantName <EnterKey>
....into the immediate pane of the debug window.
(Might not be very readable)
