MS Access Forum / Forms / September 2007Formatting List Boxes
I am using Access 2000. I would like to change the backgrount to tranparent on list boxes on several forms as well as to centre the text in the boxes. I use the formatting tools to selct the transparent backgrount and centered text but the changes do not take place. Any and all help will be appreciated.  SignaturePlus 65 How are you doing that? List boxes do not have a text align or a back style property SignatureDave Hargis, Microsoft Access MVP > I am using Access 2000. > I would like to change the backgrount to tranparent on list boxes on several [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Any and all help will be appreciated.

If you are in form view nothing will "take" You have to be in design view, but still I don't understand, because the List Box control doesn't have a text align or a back style property. Which properties are you setting? Are you sure you are on the correct control?

I know from experience that nothing will take from the form view. However, the properties' list for the list box (in the design view) does show a back colour and a centre format feature but they won't take either. It appears that my question has been answered. The list boxes don't have those properties. So, onward and upward. Thanks for you time and assistance.
