Version Information

Version Added: Access 2010

Syntax

expression .ForeTint

expression A variable that represents a TextBox object.

Remarks

The ForeTint property contains a numeric expression that can be used to lighten the theme color in the ForeColor property. The default value of the ForeTint property is 100, which is neutral, and does not change the theme color. To lighten the color, first determine the percentage by which to lighten from 1 to 100, then subtract that value as a whole number from 100 and use the remainder. For example, to lighten the theme color by 75%, subtract 75 from 100 and use the remainder, which is 25.

This property is not surfaced in the property sheet.

Example

The following code example lightens ForeColor by 75%.

Me.ctl.ForeTint=25
