Change Background Color?

[davidgottlieb]

What is the code to change the background color in a user form to white?

[barrk]

Simply set the form's backcolor property to white.

form1.backcolor = &H8000000E8&

It's much easier to use the constants.

Form1.BackColor = vbWhite

Oh yeah. How do I change it back to the default color?

Form1.BAckColor=vb3DFace

I am trying that code and it is not working. I have a multi page form too. It has two pages. The reason I need to turn it white is so that it will print white so that it can be faxed. Here is my code:

Sub Print()
frmReferral.BackColor = vbWhite
frmReferral.PrintForm
frmReferral.BackColor = vb3DFace
End Sub

What is wrong?

[kedaman]

Sub Print()
   frmReferral.BackColor = vbWhite
   Doevents
   frmReferral.PrintForm
   frmReferral.BackColor = vb3DFace
End Sub

The form won't paint unless you give it a chance In fact it first prints, then paint it white and immediately paints it back. Doevents will allow your form to repaint.

For some reason that didn't work. What is wrong?

Sub Print1()
frmReferral.BackColor = vbWhite
DoEvents
frmReferral.PrintForm
frmReferral.BackColor = vb3DFace
MsgBox "Please pick up your referral off of the printer and save it for your personal records."
End Sub

Thank you for your help

This may be the problem. I have MultiPage. I have two tabs that I am using over the form. How would I identify those to change them white?
