Visual Basic: Windows Controls
TitleBackColor, TitleForeColor Properties
See Also Example Applies To
Return or set values that specify the background and foreground colors of the title area of the control.
Syntax
object.TitleBackColor [= color]
object.TitleForeColor [= color]
The TitleBackColor and TitleForeColor properties' syntax have these parts:
| Part | Description |
| object | An object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list. |
| color | A value or constant that determines the color to be used. |
Settings
Visual Basic uses the Microsoft Windows operating system red-green-blue (RGB) color scheme. The settings for color are:
| Setting | Description |
| Normal RGB colors | Colors specified by using the Color palette or by using the RGB or QBColor functions in code. |
| System default colors | Colors specified by system color constants listed in the Visual Basic (VBRUN) object library in the Object Browser. The Windows operating system substitutes the user's choices as specified in the Control Panel settings. |
Remarks
The TitleBackColor and TitleForeColor properties can be used with the MonthBackColor and TrailingForeColor properties to customize the colors of the control.
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 three 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 isn't 0, Visual Basic uses the system colors, as defined in the user's Control Panel settings and by constants listed in the Visual Basic (VBRUN) object library in the Object Browser.
