Textbox, Enable-Property, Graystyle

Author	Message
Robert Mart #1 / 4	Textbox, Enable-Property, Graystyle I set the Enable-property of a control (i.e. a Textbox) to False. Now I'd like the foreground-color to stay black instead of gray. Is this possible and how ???

DreamChase #2 / 4	Textbox, Enable-Property, Graystyle The Enabled color is taken from the Windows System Display Information so I don't think that you can change it. However if you are just talking about a textbox, set the Locked property to true. Then it can't be edited, but the color remains the .ForeColor property.

You lucky one: There's a bug in VB that allows you to do so: Just set the textbox's Multiline-property to true while it's disabled and there you go. Apart from that, VB4 offers the .locked-property for this, a VB3-solution is given in the FAQ (link below).
