But, it doesn't work in the sense that the subscript is ignored and the color is applied to all list members.

I think it was Christof Lange who showed this neat trick with a listbox wiith a popup as a rowsource, and in a popup you can define your fonts and colors as you like. Of course, you have to define the popup first, maybe from the listbox's init, or form's load.
