You will have to use custom drawing for that - see ListView.DrawItem event.

If you don't have to choose a custom color, you can do it very simply. For
example Color. offers 134 choices; won't one of them be close enough? Then,
one line of code will set the backcolor and one one will set the forecolor as
in

lvCodeElts.Items(0).BackColor = Color.Coral

Just a suggestion to uncomplicate the matter.
