Start Menu text is WHITE no matter what

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

I'm not sure how long ago it started but no matter what theme I use, the
start menu appears in white... even when that is not what it is set to in
the theme. I have hundreds of themes, including many I got straight from MS.
In the theme creator I can see some text is black, some blue, some even
pink, but not on my PDA. It used to be correct, but no more. When I select
some themes, that have light backgrounds and the text is obviously supposed
to be dark, it isn't and I can't see the text at all. Does anyone know what
happened and how I fix it?
Thanks
Carol
