Access cannot do that.

You can set the Transparent property of the tab control to Yes so that the
colour of the detail section shows through. However, this does not work
properly either if you are using Windows XP and have Themes turned on.
 
See:
http://www.lebans.com/tabcolors.htm
Tabs.zip is an MDB containing a class to enhance the standard Access TAB
control in order to allow for:

1) Tabs of any color

2) Rotated Text

Notes:

You must set the Tab controls TAB Fixed Height and Width properties

You must set the Individual Tab pages TAG property to whatever color
value you desire.
