    Outlook background


    Hello everyone.
    About a week ago I found that my email reading pane has aquired a light grey background, it had always been white previously. Can anyone tell me how to correct this please?
    Have a nice day.
    Robert.

    Welcome to SevenForums Robert,

    Open Outlook, then click on File > Options, then change the option ringed in red as shown below.

    Hi Golden. That must be the all time record for a speedy reply. Thank you.
    I should have mentioned, I am still using Outlook 2003.
    Have a nice day.

    Hi Robert,

    We aim to please. Unfortunately, I don't have a copy of Outlook 2003, but I found this useful link:

    Change Outlook 2003 color scheme in Vista and 7 | MSOutlook.info

    Let us know if it works.

    Regards,

    No worries Robert. Did you get the colour sorted out?

    Hi Golden. Yes I did. I went to Internet Options, colors and checked the 'Use Windows Colors' box. That fixed it.
    Thank you for your support.
