Changing default button styles

R

Rich Stone

I have just imported an old database into Access 2003. Whenever I add a new
command button, the wizard displays a button in a style complimenting my XP
style. However, when the wizard is finished, the button is the old flat type.
How can I change the style of all my buttons?

Rich,

Run menu item Tools > Options, select tab Forms/Reports and check Use
Windows Themed Controls on Forms at the bottom. Although not clear, it
is a database-specific setting (i.e. it will not affect your other
databases).

HTH,
Nikos

Thanks Nikos. I can't believe I didn't see that option before!

My database is now looking rather smart with all it's buttons matchig my
chosen XP theme.
