Anyone know if I can make the "TEXT" property blink?

In the old green screen days we would send a char value concatenated to the front of the text to turn blink on and then one at the end to turn off. ie. char(xx):"Hello world":char(xx)

I would like to set the TEXT property of the window to blink.

ie. Set_Property(@WINDOW,"TEXT","Hello world")

Bruce,

The conventional approach is to use the TIMER event. This question was asked a few months ago in the general Online Discussion board. There was a suggestion that a DLL exists to do this for you. No more information was offered so I do not know if it was third-party or a part of Windows.
