Altering the ForeColor of a Control

How do I change the fore colour of a control in C#. Essentially, I want it to change to red based on one criteria, and black on another.

Hi
This should do it for our textbox.

Code:


FWBS.Common.UI.Windows.eTextBox2 ctrl = EnquiryForm.GetControl("TextBox1") as FWBS.Common.UI.Windows.eTextBox2;
TextBox innerctrl = ctrl.Control as TextBox;
innerctrl.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;


If you could tell me the control you are using. I can tailor a better example
Regards
Danny

Thanks, Danny. The control is called OCcost1 and it's a textbox.

Hi
Great yes my sample should be correct. Simply change the name I use to OCcost1

Code:


FWBS.Common.UI.Windows.eTextBox2 ctrl = EnquiryForm.GetControl("OCcost1") as FWBS.Common.UI.Windows.eTextBox2;

Danny, Just seen it's not a text box but an eCurrency?

Hi
This should do it.

Code:


FWBS.OMS.UI.Windows.eCurrency ctrl = EnquiryForm.GetControl("OCcost1") as FWBS.OMS.UI.Windows.eCurrency;
TextBox innerctrl = ctrl.Control as TextBox;
innerctrl.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;
