Changing label text color in code question 1

[piratefan]

I am trying to change a label's text color. If the user enters invalid data, I want the label to appear in red. But I am exhausting my options.

Label1.forecolor = "red"
Label1.forecolor = red
etc.

I can't locate it with searches. And I have used it before.
Thanks.

Try this:

Label1.ForeColor=System.Drawing.Color.FromName("red")

Like a charm thanks.

You're not going to believe this, but you answer this thread, and the one I posted, just after this one; so you nailed 2 in a row. Thanks.
