Hi, I'm moving all my applications to VB.NET from VB6 (VB.COM) but with a full redesign from the ground to top but one thing that what working fine in VB6 was that trick for the background color of controls in taskpanel

in form_load()

set myitem = mygroup.items.add(1,"",3)

myitem.control = picControls

picControls.backcolor = myitem.backcolor

but in vb.net i replace that by

myitem = mygroup.items.add(1,"",3)

myitem.control = panelControls

panelControls.backcolor = Color.FromArgb(myitem.backcolor)

no error on running but the backcolor isn't changed i event put the code in the paint event of the panel but nothing changed
