Bill: Maybe .... But I don't understand what the heck "BtnText" means to begin with, so having even more windows colors won't help me! There would have to be a real clear list of "translations". Like: "You use InfoText as the background color of a DBEdit" or "You use WindowText as the font color of a button".... Without those kinds of specific translations to RBase form controls, all windows colors are Greek to me! I wouldn't know where it is "safe" to use them!
