I searched the archives, but could not find what I needed. Is there
actually a way to change the background color of a textfield after it is
created? I can do it with foreground color, but not background. The
closest thing I found in the archives was this from Aldo:
$Richedit->SendMessage(1091, 0, hex('00FF00'));
this sets the background color to green.
note that the hex() format for the color is expressed
as BBGGRR (BB=blue, GG=green, RR=red).
BTW, 1091 stands for EM_SETBKGNDCOLOR.
Perhaps this only works for richedit controls. Is there a way to do it for
plain old textfields?
BTW, I'm on Win95.
