Good day all.
new to Android, and I have small app that is working.
I would like to show one portion of the text in a different color.
Here is my function.

//show Medications
fun getAllMeds(): List<Medication> {
    val medList = mutableListOf<Medication>()
    val db = readableDatabase
    val query = "SELECT * FROM $TABLE_NAME"
    val cursor = db.rawQuery(query, null)

    while (cursor.moveToNext()){
        val id = cursor.getInt(cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(COLUMN_ID))
        val medname = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(COLUMN_MEDNAME))
        val medpill = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(COLUMN_MEDPILL))
        val medtaken = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(COLUMN_MEDTAKEN))

        var text = "Take <font color=Red>("  + medpill + ")</font> pill every "

        val med = Medication(id, medname, text, medtaken)

        medList.add(med)
    }
    cursor.close()
    db.close()
    return medList
}

the portion under text does not change color, just prints the whole line.
if have this appear on main screen in a TextView.
any pointers would be appreciated.

Have a great day!
