Hi. I hope someone can give me some help with this. I don't know if it's possible, but i would like to change the color of the highlighter in a richtextbox (not the color of the text that is highlighted, but the actual highlighting color). For me, i find the highlight color i get in programs written in Visual Basic is BLACK. However, the rest of the programs in the system use GREEN! Is it possible to change the color of the highlight at run-time? I would like its color to be the same as the color of the richtextbox so that the highlighter does not show, but the text is highlighted all the same. If it's not possible to do this, can anyone suggest a way to change the color of pieces of text in the richtextbox to gray. The idea is a speed reading training program; i have some text in the box, and i want to dim the color of pieces of it at timed intervals as a way of guiding reading speed and discouraging a user to regress...read back.

If anyone can help, i would really appreciate it. Thanks!
