Can you have coloured tick-boxes?

[Big Pat]

Hi,

Does anyone know if it's possible to colour a tick-box: e.g. the border, the background or the font-colour? I'm trying to put a red tick-box on my form (to differentiate one vital one from several others), but I can't seem to find a way. I have changed the border to red (255) and tried various options like flat, sunken etc. but it only seems to work with shadowed - and to be honest that looks terrible.

I've fudged it a bit by putting a coloured box on the form and overlaying the tick-box, but I would have thought there was a better way.

Pat.

Would colouring its Label help as that is possible.

Thanks

Niniel,

Not sure if that will be of any help in my form, but I can think of two or three reports where I could give that a go.
