Label vs. Form color

Hi,

When I add a label to my form and sets the backcolor to be exactly the same
backcolor as the form uses...they differ - why is that ?

The label's background color is set to the same as the form color so that
you won't see the label's edged when the application is run. If you want to
customize it, you have to set the color properties on one of the objects.
