Default Changing Color of Custom Forms

Is there a way to change the background/formatting color of the custom pages
to match the general page? I have tried to make the advanced properties
exactly the same on the custom as on the general, but when I publish the
form, the custom pages are a different color and scheme than the general
page. Is there another property I should be changing?

Default Changing Color of Custom Forms

If you are using Outlook 2007, use a form region - it has themed controls and
much richer color support.

If you have an older version of Outlook, you can right click on the tab you
are designing (or the control), select Advanced Properties and change the
backcolor, bordercolor, etc... from there.

Hope this helps,
John

I have 2003 and have tried to change the background color using the advanced
properties, but it still keeps it the neutral beige/tan color, not the gray
scheme I want. Any other suggestions?
