Man, maybe I shouldn't post late at night when I am tired...:) I was working on both Font and Color proeprties and with it being so late, somehow both were intermingled. Sorry about that; I've corrected it below to be more clear.

>>I have a situation where the same code works in one Windows Form, but not in another form I am now working on in my C# class. I believe I have all the code necessary to change the default "ForeColor" property for the WinForm, but the "ForeColor" on all the labels does not change at all. Did I miss any steps here?
        private void colorToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
             colorDialog1.Color = this.ForeColor; // Get initial color value.
             colorDialog1.ShowDialog();           // Let the user choose the ForeColor value.
             this.ForeColor = colorDialog1.Color; // Set the ForeColor value.
        }
>Bit confusing since you talk about Fonts and the code is for Colors :-}
>But the code should work - as should the equivalent using FontDialog().
>But bear in mind that, for example, Foreground is an ambient property - if you have specifically set the value in the control itself then it will no longer 'inherit' from the form
