Excel background on form

[mkelly]

I am building a database to collect data that at one time was only an excel form. I removed all the text boxes etc from the excel form and pasted it onto an access for. I put all my text boxes, check boxes etc on that imported form. However, when I open the form to input data the form is blank until I hit the tab key then all my access boxes become visable. Is there any way to fix this?
Any help appriciated.
