A while back I posted a message about the occasional problems I've been 
having with my color palette.  Now I have more info to give in hopes that 
someone can help me prevent this.  Whenever I open a Windows program without 
first going to WinOS2 Program manager (in other words, when I start the 
program from the OS/2 desktop or from an OS/2 folder), all of the OS/2 colors 
get messed up.  Here's what I've nailed down so far:
1.  All of my window borders change from yellow to black.
2.  The title bar of the active window (after closing the Windows program) 
changes from teal to black.  (Closing the Windows program doesn't cause the 
colors to revert to their correct appearances).
3.  The menu bars of all open windows change from light grey to black (they 
already have black lettering, so this makes the words on the menu bars 
invisible).
4.  The background colors of some icons change (one in particular changes 
from maroon to pink).
I've found that if I select the OS/2 color palette (which I've moved to my 
desktop because of this problem--I use it so much!), and then select HELP, 
all the colors revert to normal.
How do I fix this so the colors don't change in the first place?  This is 
OS/2 v.2.10 with no fixpacks.
