Probably the easiest way to do this is for you to derive your own control from the textbox and handle the different background colour in there.

Not sure if this is an option for your particular situation or not. When I need behavior like this I set the textbox to readonly instead of disabled. That way I can modify the backcolor. txtBox.ReadOnly = true; txtBox.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.White; Hope this helps.

I thought you could set a textbox to
ReadOnlyandEnabled.ReadOnlywould leave theBackColorto white, whileEnabledwould set it gray. you can always set theBackColorto virtually anyColoryou want after you've set itReadOnlyorEnabledHope this helps.V.
