Menu bar color is global as part of windows general color scheme. You change *YOUR* menu bar, you're changing *EVERY* menu bar. Great way to PO users.<br />

Well here's the skinny. &nbsp;My app doesn't utilize the standard menu bar. &nbsp;I want a popup menu, and the system colors look horrible with my app. &nbsp;I want a black pop-up with white text. &nbsp;I don't want to have to write a workaround like creating my own user control that pops up and I have to write all the functionality. &nbsp;Any ideas?<br />

I don't think you're going to have much luck, EXCEPT by making your pop-up menu more of a pop-up Form, which could be any color you wanted....<br />

NO API Calls.... but set the forms Caption to &quot;&quot;,<br />
ControlBox to False. Then add a PictureBox with the Align set to &quot;Top&quot;, and its backcolor to black (&amp;H00000000&amp;). Voila.<br />

I want to force my menu bar color to be black and my text to be white in my application (I know it sounds hideous, but just trust me..). &nbsp;Anyhow, is there an API call that can do this, or am I just Out of luck?

Menu Bar Color

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
