Learn to use flash Help.

ActionScript 2.0 Language Reference  
ActionScript classes \> TextField \> textColor (TextField.textColor property)

```auto

this.createTextField("my_txt", 99, 10, 10, 100, 300);
my_txt.text = "this will be red text";
my_txt.textColor = 0xFF0000;

```

Have fun flashing.

**Deril** answered already  
Use TextField.textColor proprety.  
Or if U want to change color of some substring - use TextFormat class.
