DisplayBackColor Property

Specifies the display panel's background color.
Syntax
[form.]object.DisplayBackColor [ = color ]
Settings

Normal RGB colors Colors specified by using the color palette or by using the Visual Basic RGB or QBColor functions in code.

System default colors Colors specified by system color constants listed in the Object Browser's object library. The Windows® operating environment substitutes the user's choices as specified in the Control Panel settings.

Remarks
At design time, the default setting is black (0x0).
The valid range for a normal RGB color is 0 to 16,777,215 (&HFFFFFF). The high byte of a number in this range equals 0; the lower 3 bytes, from least to most significant byte, determine the amount of red, green, and blue, respectively. The red, green, and blue components are each represented by a number between 0 and 255 (&HFF). If the high byte is not 0, Visual Basic uses the system colors, as defined in the user's Control Panel settings and by constants listed in the Object Browser's object library.

Run-time access: read/write. Design-time access: read/write.
