Background images on forms 1

[mattpearcey]

I have found a few threads that look at changing the background clour of the form design, but following the advice on there has got me no-where. I have a few images that i want to use at background (wallpaper) in some of my forms, but i cannot seem to work out how to do it? I go to properties on the form, but i can only select colours, or modify colours. Then, in autoformat, i can only choose the rather limited ones microsoft have provided. Any ideas?

Thank you for your help already.

View the "picture" property of the form. You can type the path of your image or wallpaper there. Stretch mode works the best for the entire screen.

In the top, left-hand corner of the form, you will see an outline of a square. When you click on it, a black square will appear in it. Right-click that black square, and a pop-up menu will appear. Select "Properties". If you scroll down the "Form Properties" menu, you will see "Pictures". Hope this helps!
