Hello everyone,
I'm quite advanced with writing my Technical Support database, so far that we are about to roll it out to users in the States (using a mixture of VPN, form timing and other things my IT bod has helped with).
It has been well received but now one of the test users has said "great database - but can I change the colours" e.g form backgrounds, buttons, font colours etc of the forms on the fly. We have corporate colours for the forms which match our other pieces of software we sell (this DB is not for sale BTW).
I have in 35 or so forms that may need to be changed. the only thing I can think of doing is writing a new module that has the default corporate colours, then make a form with the controls on it for them to pick the colours and apply them.
I have no idea how to cycle through the controls or the forms in the database. Anyone done something similar? or should I just tell them to s*d off?
many thanks in advance
Cliff
