Form's title bar question

D

Damon Heron

I am using Access 2007 for developing my db on a Windows 7 pc. When I open
a form, it has the Win 7 transparent title bar, as expected. I created a
new form, however, and it opens with the XP title bar style. What's going
on, and how do I fix it? (I tried turning themes on and off but that didn't
do anything).

Still don't understand it, but if I create a form in Access, it shows the
old XP style title bar (both in design view and form view). However, when I
make it a popup, it displays as Windows 7 Aero view (transparancy). Does
this mean all my forms have to be popups???

What's the database's setting for USE WINDOWS THEMED CONTROLS?

I have tried both on and off themes to no avail. The only thing that works
so far is using popup...
I am using Access 2007 on Windows 7 pc. The db was partly developed when I
was running XP - but none of those forms has the problem. Just when I
design a new form does it show (in form view) as XP style window...

If I am the only one experiencing this, then I must have something
corrupted, either Access or Win 7.
