Keep exploring and you       will eventually find the "Advanced Appearance" dialog. In this dialog       you must select the "Item" that you want to modify. In this case, you       want to choose "Window" then you choose a new color for that item. Press       "OK" to keep the changes.              If you still can not find this window discribed, use a search engine.       This question has been asked and answered many times over the years and       you should no doubt be able to locate a set-by-step instruction related       to your Windows version.              --       Todd Vargo       (Post questions to group only.
