When I centre my opening menu form the background desktop colour is an annoying bright white. Can I change this?
Note not asking about the background colour of the Form itself but the desktop colour sitting behind the form

Go to File > Options > General and change the color scheme to Black. This will change for MS Access in general and not this database.
Thanks for the reply. I don't have that choice in File>Options>General, maybe different in Access 2013? However, changing the values, see attached, has no effect.
Actually, it will change this for all MS Office Programs, including Word.
And for anyone coming along, later, using Access 2007 instead of Access 2010, you would go to the Office Button > Access Options > Popular to change this.

The problem with making anything foolproof...is that fools are so darn ingenious!

I am using Access 2013 so none of these options answer the question. The options which exist change the screen behind the ribbon (see Access_Background_2.doc) they do not change the bright white screen which sits behind the centered form (see Access_Background.doc). Would still appreciate help with this if possible.
