Hi
I think you may use the DrawItem Event which exposes an argument of DrawItemEventArg type ,thru which you can change the font, forecolor and backcolor etc..

Note: The OwnerDraw property must be set to true

In Whidbey, this is easier, the new ToolStripMenuItem and MenuStrip and ContextMenuStrips have Font properties.
