Where I can change for have the office blue skin?

Please don't speak about windows theme. I have all try with no result
(change my theme, replace all settings, change the registry)!

In my opinion this is not link to windows theme (If you are sure there is a
link between the two explain me which, why?)!

Thanks a lot for your help I really need it!

Like it or not, applications running under Windows don't have their own
themes. The differences in border and toolbar colors between the two
pictures for which you provided links are *Windows* color schemes. You have
to change these colors from the Windows Control Panel, and they'll apply to
*all* applications.

If you believe you can set such colors only for Office, you are mistaken.

Hi,

Thanks for your fast reply!

Ok if you say that is link no problem I believe you!

But I have the following option selected on my Dislpay popertie and I have
always the the gray skin in office.

I have try to change the theme, change the Windows and Buttons to classique
after same but with winXP style and no result office is always in gray!

I have modify my windows registry to put the same things that I have in
another computer who have blue skin no result!

So It's why I say that it's not link! all the people who has answer to me
say try the theme, the registry and No result It's unbelievable!

This blue skin has suddenly change one day I go work and no blue skin! And
the day before I have make no install of any program

Any other idea?

If so, you'd have thought at least one of their sample screenshots
would have shown different color schemes in different application
windows.

They do have a screen shot of a program but it is not the best.
If you want to see a screenshot using the free version, I took to show the
difference in Word and Windows Explorer windows try the following link. This
just an example. There are other skins and you can also download more.

Hi Paul,

FYI, trying to use that URL to just look at the sample requires
registration on that site.

Hi,

Your program is great but I where I'm working I didn't have the right to
install this kind of program!

Nobody knows what can I do?

You can do nothing. Vous pouvez ne faire rien.

Windows alone doesn't provide the functionality you want. You're not
allowed to install add-on software to provide the functionality.
Therefore, you don't have and can't have this functionality at work.

I have the exact same problem with the Office change of color. One day it
was blue and now it is brown. Any new suggestions without having to use a
third party program?
