Hi,

I've just installed Expression Web 2 (Trial) and the chrome around the
window is all black/dark grey. On EW1 it's a much nicer silver colour,
and I'm finding it quite hard to use the darker EW2 as it's causing me
to have eye strain.

It doesn't seem right to me as EW1 used the same colour scheme as
Office, but EW2 seems to be using a totally different scheme that just
doesn't fit in at all.

Is there any way to change the colour theme for the chrome?

With EW 2 open, Tools > Application options, General tab.
Check "Use your current windows color scheme"

Oh that's fantastic, and so much easier to work with! Thank very much
for your help - you've no idea how many times I opened up that dialog
and totally missed that option <g>
