Primary Application Window Color Settings

This may seem trivial, but is there a trick to changing the color settings
for the MS Office Enterprise 2007 applications? I have tried every pre-set
theme and color grouping known to Windows XP Media and still the color for
any Suite Application opened remains unchanged - BRIGHT BRIGHT light blue.....

Ideas?

There are only three color schemes available for Office 2007. Light blue,
black, green. None are really vibrant. It is changed within Office, not
Windows. Look in Word Options - not sure about the exact location from there
but it's in there somewhere.

Light blue, black and green?

I have light blue, black and silver...

In Microsoft Word 2007 click the Office button, then Word Options, and under
"Popular" options (the first view you see) just change the Color Scheme
option. Simple ;-)

Cheers

Sorry - green was a typo. Yeah, that's it. I misspelled silver. ;-)

Simple maybe. unintuitive completely.

Bright intelligent intern: "Hey, I have an idea! Let's let the user pick
what theme he wants all his apps to be using Windows!"

Old school hip attempt: "Naw, then we wouldn't be like a mac."
