Table selection contrast issue - any way to change?

[dB333]

Hello,

I was wondering if there is a way to change the highlight colour/shade when
selecting tables. I regularly export a host of tables and it has become
quite an annoyance that I can barely discern which table I have selected (to
give a placemarker for the next table to select). I have tried changing the
colour scheme, but this only changed the toolbar and main area background,
yet did not change the highlight colour at all.

Please note that I realize there is a noticable highlight when first
selecting a table, yet after running a command such as Export to.. Excel the
highlight is removed, to be replaced by a slight bluish hue.

Thanks in advance...

One strategy to solve your visibility issue is to put your working
paradigm into a form with a combobox or a listbox (single or
multi-select depending on your needs). The data source can then be a
query based on the Tables collection.

In general, using the provided Access interface in a production
environment just isn't done. Use the tools provided by Access to
create higher levels of functionality, user friendliness and
productivity.
