Bonnie,

Thanks for your reply, what I was really looking for was to change the border size and colour itself. What I'm really looking to do is show that a specific item has been picked so like if you click on a folder or file in windows explorer whilst the view is set to thumbnails.

Thanks again for your help.

Jon
