Ahh, well it had some other useful features when I first wrote the 
program.  I use the breakpoint facility to mark a particular line in 
the text - the colours are used to highlight some things.  It was 
easier to use that control at the time.

I guess I should port it all to Gambas 2 now, and use a simpler editor 
control.  That will give me something interesting to do :)

Thanks for replying Benoit.

Cheers,

   Mike.
