Linda- When I was working and as independent consultant, I received a call from a good customer (in other words, she was really dangerous on her PC) who said that her keyboard would not work in Word. When I got to her office, I opened Word and typed some gibberish and, sure enough, the screen remained blank. After determining that the keyboard did work in other programs, I discovered that she had set the normal.dot template to a font color of white! Of course, white letters on a white background are very hard to see! Parker Renaud prenaud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx "Not all who wander are lost" -----Original Message----- From: Linda F.

Seems the background color is controlled by Windows not Outlook. If you change the Window color in Display Properties>Appearance tab, it will apply to Outlook as well. vic http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WinTips-Tricks/ ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?Subject=unsubscribe Or, visit the group's homepage and use the dropdown menu.
