Label Backcolor ?

Not entirely sure what's going on, but this was definiately working the other
day..

I could simply (in page load) set my label backcolors like:

label1.BackColor = Color.Gray;

For some reason it completely ignores it now.

any ideas why this would suddenly stop working? (it's not just one page is
all of them)

Do you have the latest .NETCF Service Pack 3 installed on your target
device? Backcolor support for controls was added in SP2.

To be fair i didn't know there was one.....

It's just strange it WAS working and now it isn't.

Where do i get the latest version in (what i hope is) one cab?

Thanks Peter.

You can get the latest here:-
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=A5A02311-194B-4C00-B445-F92BEC03032F&displaylang=en

However it doesn't quite meet your "one cab" expectation as it's a
redistributable with an installer which uses activesync.
