[AccessD] OT: AV and the New Box

Hi folks,

I have been using Access 2003 now for about 4 months.  Tried to create a
form this morning and put a tab control on it with the background set to
transparent.  Even though the background property on the control says it is
transparent, the background does not change from the default white.  As I
recollect in XP and 2000 the tab control work area would turn transparent if
the transparent property was set. Is this some new feature with Access 2003,
a bug, or am I missing something?

Thanks in advance for any information on this.

Doug
