G'day.

I have severl forms that I quite like. On these forms, I have a series TEXT
boxes that are used to display data (duh...). Anyway, I need to have these
boxes DISABLED - no biggy. The problem is that the text appears very SOFT
and WASHED OUT - even when I specify a BOLD attribute.

Without using LABELS (I would have to do a bunch of editing), is there a way
that I can display the text in the TEXT boxes so it does not appear all SOFT
and Washed Out?

I've tried many different fonts, changed the Pallette and System Colors etc.
This is quite annoying.

TX in advance.

Wiley
