Default Color of selection in combo box

I have a combo box set to style 2 (drop down list). A selected item apears highlighted in the textbox part of the combo box. Is there a way to control the color of the highlight? Currently, the highlighting changes the text to white and the background color is blue. Can I change these colors? Can I "turn-off" the highlighting?

Thank you,
Gary

The controls use standard colors set for windows. If you change your
windows color scheme, then you can change this color, but other than that, I
don't believe you can.

Thanks Tom. I'll learn to live with the stand color scheme.
