Hi All,

When a control is disabled, it is grayed out.
Is there anyway to set a different foreground/background color for disabled
controls (combobox, textbox, etc).

Thanks.

Ok.
In that case, is there a way to get the handle of the editable portion of
the combo box.
What I am thinking of is paint the disabled region with a different color,
and draw the combobox string in a contrasting color on the painted
rectangle.
Is this possible.

Any ideas anyone?
