Hello,

I'd like to change the backcolor property of textbox in a grid whenever the user clicks in the textbox in question.

I've added the following to the click event of the textbox (along with someother code).

ThisForm.Stgrid1.Column7.Text1.backcolor = rgb(255,0,0)
thisform.refresh

Unfortunately it only changes the backcolor to red while the mouse is actually on the textbox with the left mousebutton depressed.

As soon as the user releases the mousebutton the backcolor returns to its original color.

Any help would be appreciated.
