Disabled text box colour

Is it possible to change the foreground and background colour on a
disabled text box?

Thanks

if you set the Enabled property to No, you'll get a "greyed out" appearance.
but if you *also* set the Locked property to Yes, the control *looks*
normal, and will reflect formatting changes - but it's still disabled, and
can't be tabbed into or clicked into.
