    You mention taking a back up before changing colours in the editor - how do you take a back up and then restore if necessary?

  • @Husky_Passion

    i use the font : calibri light, size 11.
    This is because i make long codes, so i need to see as much as possible without scrolling (to debug).

    Hey,
    there is something called VBEThemeColorEditor. If you search on Stackoverflow for "Customize VBA Editor" or google it, you will get a tutorial on Changing your Colors in VBA so that you have similar Colors as on Visual Studio.
    Maybe this is helping someone 👍

    • @VBAA2Z
      @VBAA2Z  4 года назад

      Thanks Kolavit for your contribution to the post. This tut is to show how it can be done without external plugin/software. The outcome is the same though you have to manually set it without software.

    The menus and sidebar are still the default colors of white and grey, unfortunately. I have a long list of modules, so I need a long big sidebar that is a big white area on the screen :(. The Office dark theme can make the Access application window all dark including the menus and everything. Yet the VBA editor, which many of us use a lot, is not affected by the Office theme. In Visual Studio, however, the VBA editor does get the dark theme. It is little things like this (and other issues) that turn people away from Access.

  • @BoraHorzaGobuchul

    There's a tool called VBAThemeColorEditor on github that allows to achieve much better dark themes by redefining the colors in the vbe7.dll file. However, it is nearly useless since MSO updates every other minute, and the settings are lost every time... Until the author adds some "auto-recover dark theme after update" functionality, it's a real hassle.
    In any case, the side windows such as project explorer are not themed, so continue to burn out the eyes in dark conditions.

      simple open the font file, you'll see install button in top left , click on it and that's it.
      Restart your excel and you should be the font.
