Setting Background Colour to a Label

[kronecker@yahoo.co.uk]

I want to set the custom colour &H0000BDBF& which I got from a colour
picker program. I need to set this as the background colour to a
Label.

I tried Label1.backgrou ndcolor = etc but it is not expecting an
integer.

Label1.Backgrou ndColor = Color.Red

RE: Setting Background Colour to a Label

You could use Label1.backcolo r = Color.FromArgb( &H6700BDBF&) . The value you
had would have a fully transparent alpha value, so you would not see the
color.
