CaptionMetrics.BackColor - always black?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Using xpg with VB6, if I try to set the CaptionMetrics.BackColor
property of a Property Grid Item to a windows system color (e.g.
vbButtonFace), it always displays as black, regardless of the value
used.  The basic color constants (e.g. vbRed) seem to work
fine.  

Any thoughts?

Regards,

-Tim
