How to colourize a custom OE Order Entry to match colour of std screen

SUGGESTED
Posted By

I have noticed that an OCX dropped on userform1 does not colourize automatically the same way when you run it as standard screen

especially the caption bar on top which I guess is not really part of std screen, but the userform1  frame (Caption and so on) does not seem to have colour settings

1.  Any info on this ?

2. should the colouring that I can control be set a certain way like 'Desktop' or 'Active Title Bar' to match ?

or is it too bad so sad - it's all manual

Any help, thanks much.

    You can get the colour code as shown below but getting the VB screen to do that yourself is some serious Windows API black magic. I found some controls that allowed you to paint a label on top of the window caption to effectively draw your own caption bar. However, that didn't handle the rest of the frame.

    I would go down the path of "too bad so sad".
