ConstantDescription
GBLCOLCAPTIONThe column caption area.
GBLHITEXTHighlighted (selected) text in the data area.
GBLTEXTText in the data display area. This is the default.
 The background color can be set for different parts of the data browser as a whole, but not for individual columns. To set the background brush for individual columns, use DataColumn:ChangeBackground(). As a rule, initial settings are picked up from the standard settings of the environment—under Windows, colors are set in the Control Panel. Note that while it is possible to alter the color of the caption and column caption areas, this is not recommended when a 3-dimensional, sculpted, "button look" is used—end users can be confused if buttons don't look like buttons.
Examples
To set the background of the text area to yellow and highlighted text to blue:
