changing the color of text in MFC

[qwerty]

I am trying to change the color of the text in a text box in an MFC application, can anyone help me. Or if anyone knows a better type of control to use which would work in MFC that would be great too. Thanks

You have to overide OnCtlColor()
as given below with the WM_CTLCOLOR inside

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP

HBRUSH CMydialog::OnCtlColor(CDC* pDC, CWnd* pWnd, UINT nCtlColor)
{
HBRUSH hbr = CDialog::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);

if(nCtlColor == CTLCOLOR_STATIC)
hbr = CreateSolidBrush(RGB(O,O,O);
pDC->SetBkColor(RGB(O,O,O));
pDC->SetTextColor(RGB(255,255,255
));


// TODO: Return a different brush if the default is not desired
return hbr;
}


the above code will have a black background

and white text color for all the static text

you have created.

if you have still doubt mail at the same place
