How to change back color of an edit control.

[ghostboy78]

Hi, I have been writing a keygen for a certain game for some time now, and the last of my problem is having a black colored edit box (where the serial number comes in) with a nice color of blue for the serial number. I'm writing my program in C++ and using Win32. The edit control is in a dialog box, and everything is working perfectly so far. Anybody please help?

I dunno much bout C++ but I'd say u process the WM_CTLCOLOREDIT message returning a handle to the brush of choice

MSDN + Google is your friend
