Themed Tab Control Question

R

Robert Morley

Hi all,

I've read previous posts on Tab Controls using Windows Themed Controls, and I just wanted to confirm something: rather than try to
force a colour on the user, I'm trying to adapt to whether or not Themed Controls are in use. Is it safe to assume that a Themed
Tab Control in Access will *always* be white? Or is it possible in some fashion (using only standard Windows methods, for example,
the Control Panel/Display and/or common API calls) to override that?

Note: I don't need to account for funky 3rd-party software that may somehow be changing it, or anything of that nature; in the
small user-base I support, that's unlikely to be an issue.

Oh, forgot to ask...what is the colour when it's NOT themed? It appears to be the system colour vbButtonFace (aka &H8000000F
aka -2147483633). Is that correct?
