The following VB sample changes the control's foreground color:

With HTML1
    .ForeColor = ColorConstants.vbBlack
End With

The following C++ sample changes the control's foreground color:

m_html.SetForeColor( RGB(0,0,0) );

The following VB.NET sample changes the control's foreground color:

With AxHTML1
    .ForeColor = Color.Black
End With

The following C# sample changes the control's foreground color:

axHTML1.ForeColor = Color.Black;

The following VFP sample changes the control's foreground color:

With thisform.HTML1.Object
	.ForeColor = RGB(0,0,0)
