Use ActiveX.

What kind ActiveX control you talking about?
Let me staight out the question again. If you run the Source Safe and use the file difference option, you will see two version of files display side by side and the differences of these two files are highlighted by color stripes. How we can draw different colors on the RichEdit control?

Pig, your suggestion may work but I did not try it. I like to state again I want to be able to set various background colors for my RichEdit. SetBkgColor() will apply one color for all control. What if I set red for first line, and set green for second line, etc?
Foreground color is a character attribute, but background color is a property of the rich edit control. I think that for owner backgraound color for every line You must ownerdraw RichEdit control and set it owner color for each line.
Do u want to hide your control or what ?
if you want to hide you can use simple
ShowWindow( hWndControl, SW_HIDE) ;
