    Can I change the background color in a Form's datasheet?

    I 've only been able to change the cells' background color, not the datasheet's.


    Can I change the datasheet's background color?(the gray color to something else?)

    Right Click and then under properties, choose a color.

    If you mean, while in the 'Form View', right click ->'Datasheet'->'Background color', no this doesn't change the datasheet's background but the cell's.

    If you mean, while in the 'Design View', right click ->"Properties', I don't see any property named 'Background color'.

    I answered you in my post #3 ("'Datasheet'->'Background color', no this doesn't change the datasheet's background but the cell's").
    Have you read it?
    Have you tried it? And managed to change the Datasheet's background color?
