VB is a Strange Beast - Is it ghostly thing

Dear all,

I have been putting an application together. When I use it at home it works fine...so then I create the distribution files...and strange things happens…e.g. If background of a cell is black at home here at work is green, I send it to some one else it becomes blue.... Scary...

Can any one help.... me fix the problem..

The other thing is I have a preview section which at home I can edit the page and all the HTML changes, at work I can make the changes in the preview section but the HTML does not changes.

Your Help is appreciated

Oh dear, that's not good.

My guess is that you are coloring your text boxes with palette colors. You should try to always use system colors.

Anyway, try researching this in msdn.

Couldn't it just be that you are using a specific color palette and you just didn't go for a normal system color, and that you and your other user are using a different resolution?

You might have a high resolution, and the other user a low one, which would then convert your "greenish" color to the closest one - in this case, blue.

Yes I'm using color palette, how can i predify to system color?

In the color properties when choosing there is a tab:
Palette or system, choose a color from system.
