Create a textbox then create a font and make the italic parameter valid, then send WM_SETFONT to the edit control. Then use SetTextColor (use GetDC to get the HDC paramater) then the color ref will be the function RGB(r,g,b)
CreateFont - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms534214(VS.85).aspx
SetTextColor - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms534209(VS.85).aspx
Then filter WM_NOTIFY and switch case for EN_CHANGE or EN_SETFOCUS and then SetDlgItemText to "" when changed if text is the default (GetDlgItemText and _tcscmp with default text)

Cool. Thanks lurc. But what about the label one. Because that's a little more important to me.

Say I wanted to make the text color red (I'm not), would I do:
| Code: |
SetTextColor(dc, RGB(255, 0, 0));
|
or
| Code: |
SetTextColor(dc, RGB(FF, 00, 00);

Hey how do I switch case for EN_SETFOCUS. Like, for the specific controls. Here's my current code, but I don't think it's right at all.
| Code: |
case WM_NOTIFY:
switch(LOWORD(wParam)) {
case IDC_NAME_EDIT:
switch(HIWORD(wParam)) {
case EN_SETFOCUS:
int len2 = GetWindowTextLength(GetDlgItem(hwnd, IDC_NAME_EDIT));
char Ndefault[] = "Enter name here...";
char *test;
test = (char*)GlobalAlloc(GPTR, len2+1);
GetDlgItemText(hwnd, IDC_NAME_EDIT, test, len2+1);
if(strcmp(test, Ndefault) == 0) {
SetDlgItemText(hwnd, IDC_NAME_EDIT, "");
}
GlobalFree((HANDLE)test);
break;
}
break;
}
break;

God, one of the most annoying things is when people come in with errors and don't know how to fix them when the answer is right there.
you HAVE to learn to fix your own errors. Exp. Linking errors mean you have to link to the right lib so you google comctl and get the MSN page and find the right lib.

Lol jeez, Blankrider. Way to hurt my feelings, jk. I know, but with this kind of error when most of the thread was based on this, it was quicker just to post and get an answer rather then google it. But we're past that lol.
