I have several forms that contain pageframes. All of the pageframes have their backcolor set to 212,208,200 (which is a light gray tone).

For my display properties (on the development machine), I have the Windows Classic theme selected. All is well and good on this machine and any other end user pc that I distribute to, AS LONG AS they have the Windows Classic them set as well. IF they have the Windows XP default theme set, the pageframes appear to be white. If they change to the Windows Classic theme, the pageframes look correct.

I went into some of the forms and make sure the backcolor was set up as 212,208,200 and they are.

The ColorSource is currently set to 4 - Windows Control Panel (3D Colors), but no matter what I set this to, I still get a white pageframe (if the default WinXP theme is set and gray (which is what it should be) if the Windows Classic theme is set.

This issue only surfaced in VFP 9... Previously, the application was developed in VFP 6.

I have some users that would prefer NOT to set their theme to Windows Classic, yet the resulting white pageframes makes it difficult for them do work with the application.

Has anyone had this issue? I virtually stopped using VFP after version 6 and just picked it back up with VFP 9 a month or so ago, so perhaps I missed alot of information... lol Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
