Hi,

May i know if we are able to change the text color of the List Box? For
example, i have 10 items in the List Box. By default, the words are
black in color. Is there anyway i can change 1 or 2 items to another
color, while the rest remain as black?

thanks alot
wayne

Wayne,

You will need to make the control use the owner drawn style and add
handlers for the WM_MEASUREITEM & WM_DRAWITEM messages.
