  How do I set the color of the text in the column headers. I’m using the DLL version, and I can select between different appearance styles, and when using SS_APPEARANCESTYLE_ENHANCED I can change the background, but not the foreground text?
  
  Kindly cpede

  Hi Pragati, thanks for the quick answer.

  Using the following code

  
  SSSetShadowColor(m_General->GetSafeHwnd(), SPREAD_COLOR_NONE, RGB(255, 0, 0), SPREAD_COLOR_NONE, SPREAD_COLOR_NONE);
  
  

  It seems, that the method SetShadowColor does the trick (maybe not the best name for a method setting the color of the header text).

  Thanks for the help, - I’m still beating my colleagues programming .NET, using your old DLL spread version.
