I want to create a blue box 140 x 24, with white letters in it. All starts good and then the colors I pic revert back to this pink color. Maybe I did something to my settings but I am going wild trying to get this to work. any ideas?

Not sure what you’re doing but it could be that you are using the text mask tool instead of the text tool and you are seeing the red selection preview?

If not try to describe what you are doing more completely.

I am using 6.0 and like I said I just want to create a simple box with white letters inside, first thing weird is that text color box on top pf page is not active, but even when I change the background color it goes right back to being a pink color. I think I am in some different mode. Is there way to just go back to that right mode?

I think you are using the Text Mask tool (as I said before). I don’t think it has anything to do with color modes. Check which text tool you are using.
