When running my programs the forms of the program change background color
as I change the computers (XP) color selection - is there a simple way to
have the form colors stay at what I determined as a background color when
building the program, rather than having the systems color settings
influence them?
Users choose their color schemes in Windows because, well, that is what they
want to see. You may not like the colors they selected, but so what, it is
their computer and they are entitled to set it up as they like. Your trying
to impose your own sense on what they should see by overriding the user's
settings is considered rude. You should adapt your program to work with the
user's Window settings, not the other way around.
