Hi,

I would like to have my form's background filled up with some kind of
nice wall paper files(bmp, wmf..?). VB's backcolor property has solid,
plain color choices, and I didn't like any of those.

For eg. in sample example of Access 7, some form have nice stone type
background, but it is actually .BMP file of fixed size. Even if you
stretch it, it looses its resolution.

What is the work around this requirement.

Please help me.

Thanks,

-- Kiran

    'Tile of background
    'img' is the name of the image control placed on the form with
    'the follow properties set: visible=false, index=0, name=img
    'and the Forms.Autoredraw property set to true for good measure.
    img(0).Picture = LoadPicture("TILE.BMP")
    maxx = Int(Screen.Width / img(0).Width) + 1
    maxy = Int(Screen.Height / img(0).Height) + 1
    For i = 0 To maxx - 1
        For j = 0 To maxy - 1
            itm = i * maxy + j + 1
            Load img(itm)
            img(itm).Enabled = True
            img(itm).Visible = True
            img(itm).Left = i * img(0).Width
            img(itm).Top = j * img(0).Height
        Next j
    Next i
