Hello all.

Does anyone know if it is possible to change the color of the message text send using SNDMSG?

I thought that perhaps something like...

CHGVAR %SST(&MSG 1 1) &HEX
CHGVAR %SST(&MSG 2 99) &TEXT
SNDMSG MSG(&MSG) TOUSR(CRISPIN)

...might work, where &HEX = X'28' (RED).

It appears not...

Thanks for any thoughts.

Crispin.
