Prevent or by-pass the system theme

[rfoye]

Is there any way to keep the XP System Theme from changing the colors I have chosen for my Access 2003 forms?

I've searched "theme colors" and all I seem to find are ways to allow the system theme to show, but nothing to keep the system theme from interfering.

I have one of those "dangerous" users who knows more than the ordinary user and she has changed her system theme. Unfortunately, this has interfered with Access to the point where half of the form, especially labels, is unreadable (dark text on dark background).

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
