Sure, look at the example under tListBox.OnDrawItem. The canvas's font.color should be set to the desired color before calling TextOut (or might be the canvas's pen.color, don't recall for certain). Setting the canvas's brush.color will change the background color also, if that's desired. If you want to do that, make sure to set brush.color before the call to FillRect.
