Why does classic skin appears in dialog box scrollbars, although .
Hi,
Hi, I am using MS Office 2003 Pro on Windows XP Home. I have the XP 's default blue theme ON. (not the classic skin) I am facing a queer problem (not a problem actually, but a irritating thing), in MS Office Pro 2003 (SP1). I observed that the "scrollbars" in Word, Outlook, Excel etc ... are all having the look and feel of Classic windows and not XP. As a result, the screen is looking somewhat odd. Everything is XP style, except for the vertical and horizontal scrollbars. Just to add more to it, I discovered that none of the dialogs have XP interface, every dialog window (say for e.g, Format -- Font) has the Classic look 'n' feel. I don't understand this. I have seen MS Office 2003 in many of my friend's PCs, they all have the XP look and feel consistently in dialogs, scrollbars, menus etc.. For me it is only the menus and the skin (default blue color). Please let me know how to get the XP look and feel. Is there any hidden setting? Thanks S S Ray |

Increase your colors in Windows Display properties. Try 16 or 32 if your
