color scheme
« on: October 02, 2002, 04:56:29 PM »
I am using Win2K and am trying to create a custom color scheme as follows in vain:

Inside the Appearance tab of the Display Properties dialog box of the Control Panel, I create a custom color scheme,  save it as BLUE_2, and then apply it.  Then I run regedit.exe and export the HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelAppearance key as BLUE2.reg.  

Then I take this .REG file to another computer running Win2K and do regedit.exe BLUE2.reg to install the color scheme. regedit says it successfully put the info in Registry.  After I reboot the computer,  when I open the Display Properties dialog box, BLUE_2 appears as the current color scheme but the some of the attributes that I gave to the scrollbar of the message box does not appear.  But when I scroll the schemes and come back to BLUE_2, the attributes are there, which means that the BLUE2.reg file has the information.

Am I missing something here regarding the registry manupilation or is this a Win2K problem?

Thank you for your help.
