The first question is of course, why would anyone want or care to see a different color of the status bar message text ??? The answer is the client requested it and really wants it.

This is in VFP 6.0 and I have tried everything and have done nothing but killed a lot of time.

Any ideas on this strange request would be greatly appreciated.

Note - The text message is changed and used in place of tool tips. Whenever the focus is on a field, a new message of what to enter or do with that field is displayed to the user. The client wants to see the message text in blue.

Thanks in advance !!!
