Frank,

 Here's the syntax for 
PROPERTY command to dynamically change the 
 FONT COLOR as well as 
background COLOR of the Tree View Nodes and
 Sub-Items.

 
Syntax:

 -- Changing Tree View Node or Sub-Item Font Color
 
   PROPERTY <TreeViewNodeORSubItemComponentID> FONT_COLOR 
'WHITE'

 -- Changing Tree View Node or Sub-Item Background Color
 
   PROPERTY <TreeViewNodeORSubItemComponentID> COLOR 
'RED'

 While in form designer, you may also customize the Font Color 

 as well as Background Color of the Tree View Nodes/Sub-Items 
using 
the Tree View control Properties panel.

 Here's how:

 01. 
Start R:BASE eXtreme 9.1 (32/64) Build: 9.1.5.11124 or higher
 02. 
CONNECT RRBYW17
 03. Database Explorer | External Forms | RRBYW17
 04. 
Form Designer | Tree View Control | Object Properties | Nodes

 
    Notice the additional panel [Node Colors]

    Now you may customize the Node or Sub-Item Font Color and 

     Background Color.

there is to it!

 Have fun highlighting some specific item(s) in you 
main menu!

 Very Best R:egards,
