Special background color for NOT activated textbox ??

[ksor]

I have a textbox in a continuous form, placed behind all other controls and I want it DISABLED. I use it for highliting the record i focus with a special color - and it works, but ...


When a record is NOT in focus I just want to see that "behind-textbox" but not with the DISABLED standard color (a sort of gray) but I want to set it to another color.


No matter what Background color I set for the textbox the DISabling sets the actual color to that gray'ish one for disabled controls !


How can I change that color ?
