Background color when control is disabled

[James Ramaley]

Setting the ReadOnly property of my controls changes the background
color. The same happens when I set Enabled = False. Where does .NET
get the new background color from? Is it configurable?

thanks

James,

Strange, never saw this, do you have a piece of your code where that is in?

Hi,

No you cant change the background color of a control like a
textbox that is readonly. You would have to make your own textbox to change
the background color. The systemcolors class contains many of the standard
colors of a control.
