Ok ill clarify sorry, heh heh. Im still working on finding the WinAPI commands to change the colors of an Edit control. But here is a more detailed code example
you could probably use an import command for the user32 and gdi32.. however in the program im doing i added a couple functions that werent in the default user32 source file. So i plopped them in a subdirectory.

Include "bin\user32.bmx" Include "bin\gdi32.bmx" Global windowt:TGadget = CreateWindow("win",240,240,240,240,Desktop(),1) 'first simply query the object hWnd = QueryGadget(windowt,1) 'then create the brush.. Where the 0 is inside the function 'your color should be in RGB(###,###,###) format.. but i 'dont see that command in Bmax. hBrush = CreateSolidBrush( 0 ) 'then do a setclasslong using -10 which the const for it is 'GCL_HBRBACKGROUND SetClassLongA(hWnd, -10, hBrush) 'now the window will be in the color you specified!
