I would like to show dark fonts (so that the text is readable and not greyed
out) in a text box, however, I do Not want the text box to be Enabled,
because I do not want the text box to ever have the focus. Can this be
accomplished ? It is looking like this cannot be done.
Thanks

why dno't just set the Font property to the color you want
and override keydown to disable keys in the textbox

The standard black font is fine, it is just that when you set Enabled =
False for the textbox, the text is greyed out to the point where it is very
hard to read.
I wonder why the ReadOnly property allows the textbox to have the focus ?
How would you set this ? >and override keydown to disable keys in the

And would it still allow the textbox to have the focus ?

You can change the ForeColor and BackColor properties after it has been
disabled, and it iwll change it.

So, for example, you can copy the text to the clipboard.
Ok, I will buy that... but there still appears to be no way to turn off the
"grey out attribute" when a textbox is not enabled....
