Preparing a form. Please can anyone tell me how to change the red border which appears around fields. I would like this to be either a thin black or blue border. Thank you, Lyn

If it's red and you can't change it by changing the border color, then you've probably marked it as required. If so, the color that's used depends on what the user has set in their preferences (Edit > Preferences > Forms > Highlight Color > Required fields highlight color), which is red by default.

Thank you very much for your response - I can see that this is caused by setting it as a required field but having changed the colour in preferences to black, the field border remains red - I have got round the issue by not setting the fields as required but it is curious that the default doesn't update.
