>>>I have a data entry screen that keeps the field disabled until the user presses Add or Edit. The only problem is that the users have a hard time reading the disabled values on the form. I fixed everything by setting the disabledforecolor to the same as the forecolor. The only exception to this is the check boxes and option group buttons show this white outline around the disabled text that still makes it hard to read

>>The disabled color is set by the user in Display Options in the Control panel. If they have trouble reading the text, they should change their colors there.

If you are not explicitly setting the background color of the form, you could have problems down the road, depending on what colors the user has chosen.
