Different coloring text in ListBox


Does anybody know how to display different color text inside ListBox ? I was
testing it with CreateGraphics and DrawString methods, but it does not work
out.

Thanks

You can only change the colors of all the items in the listbox at a time
(with the ForeColor property). If you want the ability to change the colors
of individual items, you'll have to move up to a ListView.
