Hi,

        Does anyone know to accurately have a <text> object
        Have a colored background fill?

        I do not see any attributes that allow you to specify
        that you want a fill behind the text (a solid colored
        rectangle that completely surrounds the text).

        Right now, I have to calculate what I think the rect should
        Be in an active-x control based on the font metrics of
        The font selected. I then draw a <rect> with the coordinates
        Of the rect I calculated, and then I draw the <text> object
after that      and Specify the "textLength" to the rectangle's width,
and the
        And the lengthAdjust to "spacingAndGlyphs".

        It seems kind of "hacky" to me, but it works.

        Is there a better/easier way?

        Thanks
        Joe
