Hi guys

I'm trying to build a userform in 2003 and am having some problems getting it to change color.

I know there is no control for multibox colors, but there has been a workaround where you place an image over the multibox, change the color of it and then send it back thus changing the color of the multibox. However, after repeated attempts I don't seem to be able to get this to work. :banghead:

Does anyone know A: why? or B: another method for changing multibox coloring? :help

Thanks

Phel

What is a multibox?

Have you considered creating putting a frame in each of the pages and putting that page's controls inside that page's frame? The color of the frame can be controlled.

Sorry Kenneth, I meant the userform Multipage.

Good idea Mike, it's not quite what I was looking for, but it pretty much does the job.

Why MS decided this was the one control that didn't warrant a background colour property is beyond me!

Thanks for the idea.
