Description:
In the result set display window, each row alternates background colors.  The odd numbered rows are set to the user's "Window" color.  The even numbered rows are hard coded to use a white background.

Unfortunately, if one's "Window Text" color preference is set to white, or a similarly light color, the user won't be able to read the text in the even numbered rows.

There are two ways to handle this:

1)  Have the even numbered rows use the "Window Text" color for the background and the "Window" color for the text.

2)  Have the even numbered rows continue to use a white background but force the text color to be black.

Option one seems better to me, since it allows the computer's user to see things using their own color scheme.

Here are some screen shots demonstrate what I'm talking about.

Funny colors to demonstrate which preferences are used where:

Just to be clear, the user's color preferences are set in the "Appearance" tab of the "Display Properties" item in the Control Panel.

I marked it "Serious" because it prevents me from using the program.

Thanks.

How to repeat:
Use white as the "Window Text" color in the OS's display settings.
