[comp.windows.ms.programmer] Colors in a listbox, how?

  How do I get colored text in listboxes? I tried to process the 
  WM_CTLCOLOR message but it doesn't seem to work:

  case WM_CTLCOLOR:
      if ( HIWORD(lParam) == CTLCOLOR_LISTBOX ){
         SetBkMode( wParam, TRANSPARENT );
	 SetTextColor( wParam, RGB(255,0,0) );
      }
      break;

  If somebody knows what went wrong, please answer me by email.

  Thanks in advance.
