Hi All, I feel dumb just having to ask this. I have upgraded from 2003 to 2016. I am trying to create a form. When I right click and select properties I can see from the screen's behaviour that some has happened, yet I do not see the Properties pop up or pane. I have minimised access itself in...

Hi, yes there is a desktop manager and I suppose it does have colour override but not any particular settings called Colour Override. However, it does in effect take over display functions from Windows. Quite frankly I really don't care too much now. The fix was simple and now everything is...

Yes, it is. Written using 2003

Many years back I developed a little system. Today I tried to open it to see what functions etc I had used. I found that I had password protected it and have NO idea what may be. Anybody out there have idea as to how, at worst, I could at least look at my structures. Alan

I closed Access with it all working, following morning...

What are the Plus and Minus points of Access 2024?

I'm getting somewhat pissed off by the constant condescending "encouragement" from AI

Funny enough, I've had more problems since upgrading to paid

I've done what you suggested. There is nothing wrong with the colours in terms of the PC, Windows, Paint etc. Someone suggested that Access 2003 does not react well to "scaling". However, nothing I could find in either the XP screen and themes settings or thed nVidia settings where there was an...

I am using Access 2003 on an old desktop running Windows XP. I have an application that requires extensive use of colours. This was running perfectly until: I had an nVidia card installed to allow me to use 2 monitors at the same time. After tweaking the appearance, I went back to my Access...

Thanks, I really should have read the code properly before posting. Sorry All

What if there are multiple users and therefore many Front Ends
