Sounds like you are using a textbox from the control toolbox toolbar.
Recommend you use a label and change the SpecialEffect property to
fmSpecialEffectSunken (2). This makes the label look just like a textbox,
the text will be bright and it can't be edited.

Doug,
I tried your code and got "Object does not support this property or
method"
