I need to add a few label controls with different background and foreground colors in J2ME UI app.

Could you suggest which UI control supports this functionality. I've looked at LabelField and RichTextFiled but couldn't find any direct api to change the colors.

Any information/suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

I don't believe any of the RIM APIs allow you to change the colors. I have been able to achieve this by creating a custom label.
Basically you create a class and extend the Field class. You then override the paint and setExtent methods. So basically you can control the color through the paint method. There is a real good section in the BlackBerry Developers Guide Volume 1 on custom fields.

This will make your app BlackBerry only since I believe the Field class falls outside of the J2ME APIs.
