Hi Steve,

this is not something I do but it seems to me that (in LOW 5.1.6.2) if
you open the Form Controls toolbar - View > Toolbars > Forms Controls
Click on the Design Mode icon, click on the Insert Text box icon and
create a text box. Select this text box and click on the icon which has
a picture of tools (spanner, screwdriver ...) and this opens a dialog
box which has the possibility of setting a background colour for the
text box.

Maybe, in this area you'll find what you're looking for.
