    Removing color red from screen

    Hi,

    I am supposed to write an application using .NET 2.0 but have to
    guarantee that the application will never show something using the color
    red or some similiar color (Red = life threatening) since a failure of
    my application will be never life threatening.

    I can actually control messageboxes in my application or unhandeld
    exception of my application, but I can't control errors shown by .NET
    while loading my application.

    Has anybody have any idea how I could solve that problem?



    bye

    You can only guarantee things that are under your control. What the .NET
    runtime or Windows show is outside your control.

    Set up a custom error page with no red on it. Problem solved.

    But might it be possible to alter the .net installation, for example
    exchange the installed icons?

    Thx

    It's no problem for the application itself but for the .NET Framework
    is a little bit harder.
