DateTimePicker, ComboBox Font weight

[hog]

I notice that if I set a textbox to readonly the font appears bold on a grey background making it easy to read. But the datetimepicker and combox do not have a readonly property. If I set enabled to false the text is faint on a grey background making it hard to read.

Does anyone know of a work around for this? I have tried setting font to bold but that makes no difference.

So essentialy you do want to make them ReadOnly?

yes I do. But these controls appear not to have a readonly property? Setting enabled to false works OK but the text is too dim
