>No you can't do it with a list box.

Yes you can....

Define a Listbox on your form and set its controlsourcetype to 9 - popup, set its controlsource to "test"

In the load event:

DEFINE POPUP Test
DEFINE BAR 1 OF Test PROMPT "Red" COLOR ,RGB(255,0,0) STYLE "B"
DEFINE BAR 2 OF Test PROMPT "Blue" COLOR ,RGB(0,0,255) FONT "Courier new", 10 STYLE "I"

See help on define bar for more customizable properties

Walter,




>However, you can use a grid instead by setting the properties of the grid so it "looks like" a list box. The color for individual rows of the grid can be set by the DynamicBackColor/DynamicForeColor properties.
