Thread: pgaccess: backgroud colors
Hey there! Is it possible to give some background color to Pgaccess windows ? (just to soften the glare of the white surfaces). If so, would somebody tell me how to do it? What i have is pgaccess 0.98.7 running on Linux RedHat 7.1 with Tcl/Tk 8.4 TIA Salustiano

I think you mean the background of table windows. You should enter into the source (possible) /usr/share/pgsql/pgaccess/lib/tables.tcl or search for the source locate tables.tcl then learn a drop of Tcl and change the canvas background color when creating new windows in procedure createWindow canvas $base.c -background #fefefe change #fefefe to other color teo
Could any one give me an example of how to use the Query, that can be setup in: pgaccess FORMS eg. how can I display the rev_date, in a text box in my FORM with a Query that is from a table in the Current DB Query = SELECT rev_date FROM revisions ORDER BY rev_num Thanks to anyone, very much!

There is a 'formdemo.sql' script file that builds a database (formdemo) that contains a small example of a rolodex using forms and query. Did you tried it? teo
Done! I put #dcdcdc in place of #fefefe, and a nice light grey appear.
