Change Color of Outlook 2007 "Mark Scheidell" <scheidell[ at ]msn.com> 08.07.2006 17:58:28 Is there a way to change the color of Outlook 2007? Most of the border and window fill color is blue. The scroll bars are the only items following my desktop scheme. I don't like the blue filling in the rest of the application area, e.g. toolbars, to-do bar area, buttons, etc. Same thing happens in Word 2007, all of the application\background area is blue. I'm sure the other apps are the same way but I haven't opened them all yet. Thanks!

You can change the color scheme to either XP Blue or Windows Vista Gray theme. These are the only 2 choices. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

Re: Change Color of Outlook 2007 "Mark Scheidell" <scheidell[ at ]msn.com> 08.07.2006 21:02:08 Thanks! What an odd place to put the color scheme. Here's hoping they either add more or allow for customization. Will be providing my input on this aspect. Interestingly, if you change it for Outlook it changes the color scheme for the rest of the Office products also.

Re: Change Color of Outlook 2007 "Mark Scheidell" <scheidell[ at ]msn.com> 09.07.2006 01:07:02 Actual the Vista Grey is better IMHO. It may be darker but at least it's not contrasting tremendously with my desktop which is XP64 silver.
