Default Appearance of Active Window

Sorry, you can't find it because it isn't there. :-(

I recently "upgraded" to Word 2007. Always before, the title bar of
the active window was blue and the inactive windows were gray. Now,
the active window and inactive window both have a gray title bar,
with only a tiny distinction in the shade of gray and the text.

Since I use two monitors and often have documents open on both
screens, it was useful to be able to tell at a glance which window
was active. Where do I change the appearance of the windows? I've
tried changing the color scheme to blue, but that doesn't provide the
contrast I'm hoping for. On the Appearance tab of the Display
Properties window, I have Windows Classic style and Windows Standard
selected, but this doesn't seem to apply to Word.

I've gone through the Word Options, but haven't run across the right
spot to change the appearance of the active window. Can anybody tell
me where to find it?

Thanks.
