    Unable to change colors (backgrounds and/or fonts) in forms or reports.

    I installed an app "restoro" which I had read may correct the problem, but it had no effect. I defined forms in both MDB and accdb formats and the problem persisted in both.

    You can't change settings in DesignView?

    By 'defined forms' you mean you built two dbs?

    make sure the property BACK SYTLE = normal and NOT transparent.
    then the colors take affect.
