How to change the colors of a diabled control

Hi,

I have disabled two controls on a form but find little contrast between
the font and the background color. Yet access does not let me change
the colors once it has been disabled.

Any clues?

Thanks

Hi,
lock the controls as well and you will be able to format them as you wish.

First set the control colors to what you want it to be.
The set it's Enabled property to No and set it's Locked property to
Yes.
