Hi Krool, thanks for the feedback.

As for #2, I'll review my approach there.

Regarding #3, I'm using a virtual machine with XP as the OS, so that might explain why it doesn't work. There is still too much cleaning up to do after transitioning all existing conbtrols to the VBCCR ones, to do a full compile and test the behavior on Win10. However, these textboxes are for display only, so I can do a workaround with a label with a transparent background in front of the colored textbox, which will solve my problem. So, either way you decide to address it, will work for me. I just wanted you to be aware of it.

Anything on #4?

Thanks,
Erwin
