Set the Background Color of a Form
- Open the form that you want to modify in design mode.
Note For more information, see Run in Developer Mode in Outlook. 2. On the Developer tab, in the Tools group, click Advanced Properties.
Click the BackColor property, and then type a value in the Properties box.
Click Apply.
Note When you use form regions, if the form background value is set to Button Face (the default), the background color is automatically determined based on the current Microsoft Office theme. Setting the color to another value prevents the color from being automatically determined. For more information, see Creating a Form Region.
