>When I tried your code I got an "Expression is invalid. Use a valid expression for DynamicForeColor property" and a similar one for DynamicBackColor. Since I use vfp3 and could find no documentation for rgbColorF and B, I replaced them with rgb(50,50,50) and rgb(150,150,150). Same error. What's its problem?

The missing piece is that I set (you can make form properties, I'm generalizing here, rgbColorF & B are just user variables):

rgbColorF = thisform.textbox.selectedforecolor
rgbColorB = thisform.textbox.selectedbackcolor

from any textbox with default selected colors, in form init()

This way you set the highlight to be the same as default used everywhere else...
