How to print inverse in GDI Text

[Terry Olsen]

I'm using the following brush and for normal text it works fine. How would
I go about displaying inverse text, say, a single word is inverse in a line
of text?

myBrush = New SolidBrush(Color.White)
g.DrawString(text, myFont, myBrush, myRect)

You would have to draw the word individually using a different brush.

I can do that...but all it does is change the text color. I need the
background color for that particular word to be inversed as well (swap
text/background colors)

Thanks.
