Why my dev box shows flat field borders; TS shows chiseled? mat <mat[ at ]notarealdotcom.adr> 11/24/2008 11:47:09 PM With Access 2003, I've noticed that on my dev box fields all look like flat/thin borders have been applied, but the property actually is chisled. On any win 2003 TS box I deploy to, suddenly all those chiseled fields show up. Does anyone know why?

I wonder why it does not 'play' the same way, when viewed on a TS box? I wonder if there is a TS setting that controls this?

My Remote Desktop Client (version 6.0.6001) has an Experience tab where you can check/uncheck themes. -- David W. Fenton http://www.dfenton.com/ usenet at dfenton dot com http://www.dfenton.com/DFA/
