If I could get it to white type on black that would be fine, but 10.1 doesn't seem to have a provision for changing the Notes font color.
I have re-installed 7.5 and verified that Richtx32.ocx is in Windows\system32 and registered. I haven't re-installed 8 but got positive responses on registering richtx32.ocx in Windows\systerm32 and syswow64. The error message on clicking Notes in 8 is: "Richtx32....Invalid Property Value" so it must have something to do with Richtx32.ocx but doesn't "value" suggest it is something set in the Registry? I've run sfc /scannow and gotten assurances no files are missing and "integrity" is OK. ============================================================================ From: Sherry/Support [she...@legacyfamilytree.com] Sent: Thursday, December 05, 2013 09:45 AM To: legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Black On Black The Note windows in Legacy are based on Windows setting. You can change the font style and color in Options > Customize > Fonts 10.1 but not the background color. In the past, the black windows have been related to a faulty Richtxt32.ocx file, as shown in our KB article <http://support.legacyfamilytree.com/article/AA-00378/11/Error-Messages-Problems/Black-Screens-in-Legacy.html> Did you try those steps?
