How to Change Text Highlight Color in RichTextBox?

nicebasic
I'm writing a program that uses a RichTextBox. Since the Black Highlight Color is not readable in some cases, I need to change it at some times. I need another Selection or Highlight Color like Green, Red, LightGreen and such colors. As you know, the Highlight color for TextBox and RichTextBox and even for ProgressBar is either DarkBlue or Black. I'm looking for a way to change this Highlight Color.

Thank you in advance for your help.
