button backcolor property

[Guest]

I have a strongarm windows ce 4.1 device and an upgraded device of the same
model that has windows ce 4.2. I needed to change the background color of a
button so I loaded .net cf SP2. This works with the ce 4.1 device but not
with the ce 4.2 device. I also tried .net cf SP3. Does anyone know how I
might fix this?

I am using this code.---- button1.backcolor=Color.red;

Thanks,
Keith Stallings

You are sure the SP3 bits are successfully installed on the 4.2 device? What
is the version returned from System.Environment.Version?

Hi Keith,

I was facing the same problem.... Did you find an answer???
Thanx, Lorenzo.

In Keith's case it was the fact that the device was using the XP-skin, not
the Win9x skin. The XP skin overrides the default button color.
