Yet Another Win32Lib UI question

My UI is coming along nicely, thanks to everybody's help. Another simple question: I have a text box that I enable and disable based on other controls. It appears that once it is disabled, when it is re-enabled the background color remains the color of when it was disabled (light grey), rather than white (which is the background color for all text boxes that are enabled from the beginning and never disabled. This actually happens on both text boxes and combo boxes. I have tried a number of combinations of commands that I think should do the trick I found in Win32Lib, but none of them worked. My guess was that some form of: setPenBkMode( TheWindow, OPAQUE) setBackColor( TheWindow, Gray ) would have done it, but it doesn't. Is there a command or series of command I can issue right after a control is enabled to change its background color to white, so it looks truly enabled? Mike
