>>My boss is more concerned about the color and the look of the app. then its functionality and design. She insist that color is one of the most important thing about our app. ARUGGGGGGGGGG!!!!! She keeps calling me in to discuss about the color. I tell her "...I don't frick'n care right now, just give me the frick'n specs and table layouts and leave me alone!". But she doesn't get it. This has been going on for 3 days now. How much longer can I put up with this?- I have a dead line to meet.

>That's not unusual for management to dwell on less significant things :) For color, just stick with using user's Windows Settings whenever possible, then the boss (or anyone else) can configure the app any way they wish (unlesss it's a web app). That's the official MS standard, and you can tell your boss that.
If she suggests anything asinine or contrary to windows standards, you might refer her to the Interface Hall Of Shame which is at
