>I'm still lost as to how to set the font color for the rich text box. I am displaying raw text from a simple text file and I want to set the font color for the entire rich text box. Any help is very appreciated.

Then select everything: .selstart=0, .selLength=len(.text) or len(.textRTF) (you'll have to try) and then set .selColor to any RGB() value you want.

If you want to set the colors for the text that'll be input by the user, then set the .Font.color property; same goes for .bold etc - you can actually have a toolbar with buttons which will do that. There should be an example of such a toolbar in the Solutions folder (home(2) then below that).
