Hi,

I've created a user control and want to use the BackColor property that is automatically created for the control. However, I can't figure out how to set a different default color for this property.

The default color automatically set for this property when I create a user control is 'Control'. But I want it to be 'Window'. The only way I know of setting the default is to override the property and use the Default attribute.But it appears that if I override the BackColor property (or ForeColor or Font, for that matter), I lose the automatic serialization when the property is set to a color other that the default (if I close the form and reopen it, it reverts back to the default). If I don't override it, the serialization happens automatically but thenI can't get the specificdefault color I want. I want to be able to set a specific default color AND have serialization.

So ... is there another way of setting the default for the BackColor property without overriding it? Or is there a way that when I override this property to force serialization?

Thanks in advance,

Greg

Never mind! Total and COMPLETE brain fart on my part.
