    Colours in VS2008 - Database Edition.

    In VS2008 Database edition, if I compare either schema or data and then generate an update script, what environment colours control the display of the text background ? My default background is black, but the script update window always has a white background, which would be ok except that it's using my normal colours for the foreground text.

    Thanks

    Hi Adrian,

    Thank you for using Microsoft Managed Newsgroup Service, I'm Zhi-Xin Ye,
    it's my pleasure to work with you on this issue.

    The region you mentioned in the "Data Update Script" window is a readonly
    region in the Visual Studio text editor. Its default background color is
    grey, you can change the background color for this text editor region by
    taking the following steps:

    1. In the Visual Studio 2008 IDE, click "Tools" item on the menu;
    2. Select "Options..." to open the Options dialog;
    3. On the Options dialog, expand the "Environment" node on the left panel;
    4. Select "Fonts and Colors" item;
    5. Select "Read-Only Region" option from the "Display items" list on the
    right panel;
    6. Choose a color from the "Item background" list, for example, black;
    7. Click "OK" button;

    If anything is unclear or you have any concerns, please feel free to let me
    know, I will be happy of assistance. Have a great day!

    Best Regards,
    Zhi-Xin Ye
