>I found the problem. It's because I have Themes=.T. at the pageframe level. So, that changes the view of the backcolor of the pageframe control but its backcolor value doesn't change. Do you know what to do with that?

You will have to use windows Theme API under XP:

*HTHEME GetWindowTheme(HWND hWnd)
DECLARE Integer GetWindowTheme IN uxtheme.dll Integer

*COLORREF GetThemeSysColor(HTHEME hTheme,int iColorID);
DECLARE Integer GetThemeSysColor IN uxtheme.dll Integer,Integer

I haven't used these myself, so you will have to figure out the details yourself.


Hope this helps.
