Changing the BackColor on a control

[Cartoper]

I am working in VS2008.

I have a TabControl on a form. The background color of the TabControl
is not the standard KnownColor.Control color, it is a lighter color.

I have placed a TrackBar on the TabControl and it's BackColor is that
of the KnownColor.Control. The question is, how do I make the
TabControl's backcolor that of the container it is on?

The tab control background colour cannot be set. This is by design.

I mistyped, I want to change the TrackBar's background color to
transparent, not the TabControls background color. Sorry.
