I want to create a list of strings that users can browse and select from, and I want the first couple of characters to be RED or YELLOW so that the most important items stand out. For example: *C Thu May 30 08:26:30 EDT 1991 THIS IS A CRITICAL MESSAGE! ^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ RED Black letters on a white background BG & White Letters I really need to have a list of these. I'm currently doing something with separate push-buttons, different foreground and background colors, and shadowThickness = 0. It does not meet all my needs. Is there some way I can do this in a List widget? All suggestions are welcome. Thank you, Wayne Scott ---------------------------------------------- wws@bcr.cc.bellcore.com I'm just a soul whose intentions are good, Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.

Don't tell me you don't > read the FAQ either :-) I started to read them a while ago, then put them down, they got buried, and I forgot all about them! I'll resume.
