Coloring the text Messages

Question

I want to build a simple program which uses three text boxes. text1, text2 and text3. When i write in text1 and press enter it should show the text in text3 with red color and when i write in text2 and press enter it should show in text3 in blue color. Something like a chat application. can anyone guide me how to do it. I do not want to use a swing class. just a textpane or some other basic control. pls help. thanks in advance.
