>>>>>>>Is there a way to make the background color of controls be whatever the color of the form is? I'm trying to create the illusion of a report on a form by getting rid of borders so it looks like the text is right on the form. But if they change their system colours (I checked) the background stays grey.

Michelle, it seems that Listbox doesn't have BackColor property.
