Many thanks for your suggestion. That would change it on a 5250 screen or emulator although I have a vague memory that OS/400 won't let you put hex codes below X'40' in messages. However I need to solve the problem for a browser. I could put HTML in the message but it would look strange on a 5250 sign on screen.

Subject: Changing msg colour in QDSIGNON for browser use


Messages for signon errors are displayed in white but if users signing on via a browser have their background colour as white, then the messages are not seen and user profiles can get disabled. Is there a way of changing the colour of the message line? I have searched but cannot find one for the whole message line. I use my own QDSIGNON displaye file.


Many thanks
