Actually, come to think of it - this looks similar to win32 code for
changing text colour only if using DrawText() or similar APIs. I am using
EM_SETCUSEL/EM_REPLACESEL to add the text to my control. In win32 I use
EM_GET/SETCHARFORMAT to change the text colour, but it doesnt appear to be
supported in win32.

Yeah it's a beast when it comes to things like this. Come to think of it
I don't know if I've ever seen non-black text in any edit control for
any program I've run on PPC... Hope you can find the answer. I've
googled the hell out of it and couldn't find anything but what I already
knew.

Oh well, guess I'll have to live with black text then!
Thanks very much for your help
