Hi Tony, In Word, select the Tools menu, and then Options. On the General tab, under the General options section at the top, check "Blue background, white text". Click on OK. George. ________________________________ From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Tony Cretney Sent: 09 March 2005 11:06 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Changing Colour settings in Microsoft Word. Hi Folks I understand that there is somewhere in Microsoft Word a setting for changing the background colour to blue with White lettering. I am running Zoom text and would like to have black lettering on a yellow background. This is not possible on Zoom Text, but if I could find the way to change the settings in Word it would simply be a matter of reversing the colour settings on Zoom Text and I would have the combination that I would find most useful for me. Can anyone tell me how I go about changing this setting in Word so that I will get white lettering on a blue background I now that there is a way, but I am at the moment unable to think what to do. Any help appreciated.
