changing color string

Hello there,I need to display a string row on a gauge.Each single character in the row can have 7 different colors, and each character can have 2 heights ("normal" and a little bigger).How can I do this?AFAIK the MAKE_STRING defines a single color and size for the string, so it seems impossible to achieve my goal...Maybe I need GDI+?ThanksStefanoP.S.: I'm developing for FSX using VC++ 2005
