I agree, Karen - "BtnFace" is the default and I _always_
change that type of default purely because any system changes will change the
colours.
However, I understand why it's done although,
personally, I would prefer a "real" colour as the default that wouldn't change
due to a Windows' settings change.

Alastair.

default colours
Alastair:
My experience is that you have to be VERY careful choosing a
background color that refers to something like "btnface" or "inactive caption
text" (that was my favorite). Apparently these colors are interpreted
different depending on how the workstation's default color scheme is. My
beautiful "inactive caption text" light blue was an almost-black dark blue on
2 of my client's workstations, matched mine on 2 other workstations.
From now on, I'm picking an actual color or going "custom". Not
sure if others have experienced this.

A Scrolling Region's properties for the Background Color and
Selected Row both default to BtnFace yet when the form is run the
Selected Row appears as Navy - on my system, at least.
