Tab control colour problem

[Andrew Kennard]

Hello

Access 2003

When I put a tab control on a form that has had it's backgound colour
changed I can't seem to find a way to change the colour used to the right of
the tab 'buttons'

Oddly I can make the whole tab page transparent but not the bit to the right
of the buttons ?

|Page1|Page2|Page3| <colour of this bit here>
+ ---------------------------------------------------+
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
+--------------------------------------------------------+

Thanks in advance

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Tab control is limited in coloring. One of the workarounds is to use
advice from

There is downloadable sample database.
