Tab control

[Amy Blankenship]

No matter what I change the background of my tab control to, I get gray
pages. Is it possible to change the color of the control or its pages?

Thanks;

Amy

Not easily, though you can put a rectangle on each tab page and set the
BackColor of the rectangle to color the body of the page. For fancier
stuff than that, see what Stephen Lebans has done at

And some info by MVP Arvin Meyer:I wrote an article in the May 2004 issue of Access Advisor magazine:

on creating your own tab controls so that you have complete control of the
look and feel.--
