Combo Box Highlight Color

[Sky]

Is there any way to change the highlight color in a Combo
Box drop-down list. When I scroll through the list the
highlight color is a ugly orange color.

It's part of your system wide Windows color/theme settings and cannot be
changed individually for the Access app.

Yes your right. I noticed that when I changed the
background color the highlight color also changes.

Maybe one day someone will write code to handle that.
Thanks though for your reply Stephen.

The highlight color is the "complement" of your foreground
and background colors. If you don't like the highlight
colors, choose more compatible normal colors.
