background color changes at clients

One of my clients employees has become very creative with her Windows
themes, colors, .... As a result the color used during development
are no longer being displayed on her screen. Attempt to change her
themes, windows colors and defaults have not proved productive.

Can some guide me to more information about the relationship between
colors specified within Access during development and those that
ultimately get used when installed at a client. I've seen some
information regarding colors beginning with negative signs being
handled differently than those that do not begin with a negative sign
but fiddling with that has not been very informative.

Thanks for any help,

Al

Look up System Colors in Help.

To get your forms to conform to the user's Display
Properties settings, you need to use the system color codes
(i.e. the negative numbers) for every color property in
every form section and control.
