Here is my wish. If this is already available in VB6 please let me know
(I've only been using it abotu 3 months). When setting up a form the
background is this light blue color (I dunno if the VB colors are all based
on the current Windows Theme/color setup). Anyway, all the grid dots are
white and when you move around an object on the form thats in dotted lines..
I can BARELY see them where there are when lining them up (especially on my
laptop). So it would be nice if you could change the color of the background
of a form (default color) and color for griddot/and frames of object (aside
from asigning colors for buttons, backgrounds and stuff). Really hard to see
where things are on the page.

Hehehe :) LOL :) I *wish* i had your problems! :)

This one is simple. VB uses standard windows colors. If you add a form to
the project, it's color is going to be set to the same color that all your
windows are in the system. You guessed it right - the Theme (or more correct
Appearance tab in Display Properties in Control Panel). So just choose the
Appearance that works for you, or tweak it.

Hope this will help.
