Color of UPPER bar

[corine]

Hopefully anyone can help me.

I would like to change the blue collor of the upper bar, the bar in which is standing the yellow key, "Microsoft Acces", etc.
Is this possible?????

You can only change this setting for all windows.
Right click on the desktop (between the icons)
choose: Properties
tab: Appearance
item: Active Title Bar
and change the color.

It is not totally impossible, but a matter of how much effort you want to put in an application.
You could change the windows colors with an API when the application gets focus and change it to the original color when it looses focus.
I don't don't know which API, you might find something on MSDN.

you can find info at:

and

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/wcedoc/wcesdkr/_wcesdk_win32_setsyscolors.htm

Declare Function GetSysColor& Lib "user32" (ByVal nIndex As Long)

Declare Function SetSysColors& Lib "user32" (ByVal nChanges As Long, lpSysColor _
As Long, lpColorValues As Long)

you need the the value COLOR_ACTIVECAPTION for the active title bar.

I am gonna look at it this evening!
Saw that you were looking for rtf documents. what about the export utility. In that way I export txt-files. Other file formats are also possible.

The menu option is of no use to me.
I am creating an add-in to generate rtf-documents containing the table and form definitions. I want to add screen shots from forms to this document.
