Text color questions (RESOLVED)

I have a couple questions about text color in controls.

First, how do I change/set the color of the text in a GuiButtonCtrl?

Lastly, how do I set the default color of the text that GuiMessageVectorCtrl renders? I can change it manually by getting the text from the GuiTextEditCtrl and adding a color tag before I send it to the message vector, but if I do not do that all my text comes out black. Is there a way to set a default color for the message vector?

Thanks for any help.
