| | background colors - change color from white? I'm using Vista Home Premium and I remember under Winodows 98 being able to change the color of toolbars and background colors of opened boxes etc.: is that still possible in Vista? The bright white of the opened field I am typing this message in hurts my eyes as I have the flu. Just curious, thanks, DH |
